The org.w3c.dom.Element , which is used in samples/message, has no method named 'setName'. I think you are confusing org.w3c.dom.Element with org.apache.axis.MessageElement.
What about using the other variation of message style service? According to Axis user documentation, (http://ws.apache.org/axis/java/user-guide.html#PublishingServices) the four signature is possible. public Element [] method(Element [] bodies); public SOAPBodyElement [] method (SOAPBodyElement [] bodies); public Document method(Document body); public void method(SOAPEnvelope req, SOAPEnvelope resp); Also note that the SOAPBodyElement and SOAPEnvelope's package is org.apache.axis.message NOT javax.xml.soap. /Jongjin. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vincent Jong" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 29, 2004 9:34 AM Subject: How do I manipulate the array of type Element in the MessageService example in Axis 1.2RC2? > I'm using Axis version 1.2RC2 (binary package) and have web services > working on Tomcat 4.1.
