request handler deals with reading request header and setting response
header
as for manipulation of the data as I know the cake 'Xml' library can
do it for xml data... example for parsing xml data as array
App::import('Xml');
$xml_instance =& new Xml();
if ($xml_instance->load($xml_data)) {
$xml_parsed_as_array = Set::reverse($xml_instance);
debug($xml_parsed_as_array);
}
as for json manipulation through at server side u can use the basic
json_encode/json_decode famous functions to convert PHP to json and
vice versa, and you can use the js helper or the javascript helper as
an alternative
