>I'm banging my head over one thing. I have this object class I'm sendig over http post. To do that, I use XmlSerializer.Serialize and pass on a Stream from GetRequestStream. XmlSerializer then serializes the object and uses the Stream object to write and send the XML to the remote service.

But the Serialize() method only takes writers as parameter, whereas I really could use a XmlReader to get the XML and transform it before shipping it on.

It sounds way over the top having to write to disk every time I need to intercept the serializing in order to perform the XSLT transformation.

Danijel,

You can use a memory stream with the XmlSerializer.
