Re: Testing a web service

[web400@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Griz,

If you haven't already done so, I think you might get a lot of benefit 
from stepping through the W3 schools tutorials on SOAP and WSDL.

http://www.w3schools.com/soap/default.asp
http://www.w3schools.com/wsdl/default.asp

Once you've written your WSDL document, try going to the following Web 
site:
http://soapclient.com/SoapTest.html

It'll parse your WSDL file, and you can then use it to see the request and 
response SOAP messages that would be generated for it.

This'll give you a good idea of the relationship between the SOAP messages 
and the WSDL document.

I don't know what XmlHttp is, so I can't help you there.
