But this is not the problem. XMLRPC does not allow passing parameters by name, only positional parameters. See http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec: "If the procedure call has parameters, the <methodCall> must contain a <params> sub-item. The <params> sub-item can contain any number of <param>s, each of which has a <value>. " Parameters have no <name>, just a <value>, so you can only use positional parameters. But you can simulate keyword arguments by collecting them in a dictionary and passing that dictionary as an argument instead. (server side) def returnArgs(self, x, y, other={}): return x, y, other (client side) print server.returnArgs("xvalue", "yvalue", dict(foo=123, bar=234, baz=345)) -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
