At its lowest level SOAP is pretty straightforward: HTTP POST a huge bunch of XML, get a huge bunch of XML back. You could use some spider/debugger to look at a successful client/server interaction and take the XML and somehow parameterize it. It would be a terrible hack, doable for a couple of calls, but not for 900! > Anyway, this is not that important and if I don't succeed, I will at least > learn to use ZincHTTP :)) That would be good.
