Hi Tim, I've pick-up some info by the western rivals for your planned parcel tracking service: http://www.dhl.com/publish/g0/en/services/logistics/it.high.html http://www.fedex.com/us/solutions/wis/index.html http://www.chronopost.com/web/en/e-com/offer/traders.jsp http://www.tnt.com/restricted/iconnections_pdfs/en/ TNT_v2_iConnections_Tracking.pdf

Hope you can take a look so to generalize the stuff

Interesting links, did you find a compilation somewhere ? No, I googled around parcel services.

I just did not put UPS as it's the first subject of the thread ;)

It seems that the last one needs an authorization BTW. What you mean ? I can download it without problem.

I can even say it's the most complete document.

It's weird that nothing has been done yet in PHP to query those services. The fedex pages show almost every languages but PHP. Yes, seem they are plugged in MS stuff only, but they certainly offer

some e-commerce solution what I could not find.

Pretty soon, I am going to have to write bridge to Chronopost. Unfortunately, it's quite no information I could find there.

Let know if you find more.

It might be a good opportunity to think about a common API (of course, only if it is possible to remotely query the Chronopost system, something I don't know yet). I think that no PEAR package should be restricted to one furnisher

when possible.
