Do I build the POST URL and put it as the text node of an OMElement and send that through the ServiceClient or is there a specific formatted XML that I send to the ServiceClient? Do I create an XML with children nodes that have element names equivalent to the param name and text nodes equivalent to the param value?
If so, where is this documented?
