Hello all,
I have a web method that accepts compound (non-primitive) arguments. I know
that the method should be applied using SOAP protocol. One of my clients
does not know how to sent SOAP requests, and know only to use GET or POST. I
know that the SOAP protocol is based on POST. from the method test form I
can see also what is the soap xml structure. My question is how I embed the
soap request as POST request? what to do with the SOAPAction:
http://tempuri.org/myMethod? and what is the name of the attribute that
holds the soap xml. any one has an example of this situation?
thanks, David

Download Microsoft Soap Toolkit 3.0 and spy on the data being sent to the web
server.
Your post method should post the data in the exactly same format.
(e.g. SoapAction is an optional HTTP attribute that you should set before
making the Post request.)

Thanks,
How can I spy the data sent tot the server? I tried looking in the IIS log
file, but these details are not included.
