Re: Is there a web services tutorial that is complete, simple, and documented?

" You may find as we did that the further you dig the more confused you get."  -  from the article.  Reading that made me feel a little less stupid.  If Jon & Susan got confused then Booth stands in good company.

OK.  One step at a time, starting at the end and working to the beginning, because that keeps me from going in wildly off-track directions.

I have a web page that asks for a date.  Using javascript, my intention is to find the day-name for that submitted date.  I want the URL to be http://10.190.90:10100/DoW with a date as a parm. The name of the day will be returned by the web service.  I believe the URL request will be something like http://10.190.90:10100/DoW?2018-11-02 and the return will be Friday.

If that looks OK, then the previous steps would, I believe, be the Web Server and the deployed Application Server?

I among others have pointed you fully working examples which include downloadable code. I think the problem most of us following this thread are having is that we don't know which of the various things you've been pointed to you don't understand.

Look at this article http://ibmsystemsmag.com/ibmi/developer/rpg/web_service_rest <http://ibmsystemsmag.com/ibmi/developer/rpg/web_service_rest> read it and tell me what you don't understand and I will gladly elaborate so that you can.

But ask the questions in steps. When there's something you don't understand - ask. Use my personal email if you don't want to do it over the list.
