Just a quick question on Web Services...

When consuming WS, what is the best way to parse/consume the returning XML. Does Android have some native calls to do this?

Thanks

If it is coming back through SOAP, there is the http://code.google.com/p/ksoap2-android project. If not SOAP, you would have to post a bit more information.

If it's not SOAP, then Android has DOM and SAX built in, and -starting with Android 2.2- XPath.
