Hi One more question regarding encoding. Does axis can handle a ISO8859 Latin1 charset (or any other except UTF8)? Both through the Encoding HTTP header and and encoding attributte in 'xml' processing instruction (<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>). If so, how this can be achived (generating the ISO8859 Latin1 encoded call and handling the ISO8859 Latin1 encoded response)?

You cannot represent the characters < and > directly in XML, you must escape them. So your input document SHOULD be: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xyz> ��� � <> </xyz> In which case, your SOAP message would look like this: <ns4:callResponse> <result xsi:type="xsd:string"> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xyz> ö� (B -b?�? �? &lt;&gt; </xyz> When the SOAP message is decoded, you will have a string which looks like the the first bit I quoted above (i.e. a serialised representation of an XML document). If you pass this string to an XML parser, you will get an "xyz" element which has a child text node containing the characters "��� � <>" This is really an XML question, not a SOAP/AXIS question.

Can someone support me in this case ?
