Sounds like you may need to write some of this in .NET, and interface with witango. Its not too difficult to have witango and .net work together on same site/server. If you are deploying on windows of course.

well, the way it SEEMS to work is that the notion of web services enables machine-to-machine information interchange. Platform independent, etc.

However, this one is buried behind a firewall, so it requires a client that can negotiate the firewall. They whipped up such a client in .NET. There may be a java client, though I've not seen it yet. To my way of thinking, it defeats all that standards platform independent formatting stuff as you have to have their client to hit their service. Why bother with SOAP? Seems like a waste of effort.

They'd sent me a copy of the current .wsdl file, but it references other docs that are behind the firewall, so it was useless.

So even your app can't see the WSDL? or will your app be able to see the WSDL?

choicepoint doesn't expose the .wsdl file to the internet. It's behind a firewall.

They say that they also intentionally change it to break clients that aren't qualified. Therefore, just creating a query xml file from something like soapclient.com will have a very short life span.

Going to try a java client next.

Boy, these guys are easy to deal with._____________________________________________________________ ___________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/developer/ maillist.taf
