Is it possible to completely hide the WSDL that is generated by a

myWebservice.asmx?WDSL

request?

I have used

<webServices>
<wsdlHelpGenerator href="new.aspx"/>
</webServices>

to customise the help page but want to go one further and completely
hide the WSDL as the webservice conforms to a published standard
making the WSDL redundant.

Thanks

MJ

Hello MJ,

Under <System.web> in web.config add the following

<webServices>
<protocols>
<remove name="HttpPost" />
<remove name="HttpGet" />
<remove name="HttpPostLocalhost" />
<remove name="Documentation" />
</protocols>
....
</webServices>
HTH
