.NET Forum / ASP.NET / Web Services / September 2006What is HTTP SOAP ?
Hi, This article states the following in relation to ASP.NET default test harness web pages. "These test pages can be used to invoke your WebMethods, but the test harness does this by making HTTP POST requests to the server rather than HTTP SOAP requests. SoapExtensions only work with SOAP requests, and thus any requests to your Web service made using the default test page will result in your extensions not being used." Is this a typo because I can't seem to find anything out about HTTP SOAP. If I want my SOAP extensions to alwyas run, do I have to disable HTTP POST request? Thanks, Andy HTTP-Post is when the Content-Type of the data-submitted to the server is: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" Whereas HTTP-SOAP is the popular web-service thing where the Content-Type is "text/xml" and the content given to the server is a SOAP Message. Note that for both of these things, the "POST" method of the HTTP protocol is used.

It kind of makes sense to me but I still don't understand exactly what Content-Type means. Also, what is defining HTTP-SOAP? As I understand it SOAP should know nothing of HTTP and HTTP nothing of SOAP. Is there some kind of extensibility mechanism in HTTP at play here?Can you recommend a link or book which describes these things because the information I have found doesn't seem too great.

As I 'd suggest to search on google for "application/x-www-url-encoded" and you may get a lot more idea. At the same time, I'll also ensure that I do find some time in next couple of days to prepare a small introductory article on the same.

There's no need for any book. Just a simple understanding of the HTTP protocol would suffice. Or if you can, have patience till the weekend to the latest... you should surely get something from me. :-) SignatureHappy Hacking, Gaurav Vaish | http://www.mastergaurav.com http://articles.edujinionline.com/webservices ------------------- > Or if you can, have patience till the weekend to the latest... you should > surely get something from me. :-) Here it goes... http://articles.edujinionline.com/webservices/2006/09/web-services-in-aspnet-htt p-post-vs.html Hope it helps... :-) SignatureHappy Hacking, Gaurav Vaish | http://www.mastergaurav.com http://articles.edujinionline.com/webservices ------------------- Thanks Gaurav that was a great help!

SignatureHappy Hacking, Gaurav Vaish | http://www.mastergaurav.com http://articles.edujinionline.com/webservices ------------------- Hi Andy, You can disable HTTP Handler in the webservice. You can only alow "SOAP Handler" which will disable the HTTP Post and HTTP Get. Please open the webservice project file in a notepad and see the handlers. For more information please go through the documentation of WSE 2.0 OR WSE 3.0. Thanks. Sarbillgates > > Thanks Gaurav that was a great help!
