They''re calling it an XML/SOAP webservice. The full documentation is here:
http://www.unipress.com/footprints/webservices/

Here's their example code for PHP. If I'm reading that example code
correctly (and it's possible that I'm not) it's saying that the
webservice resides here:
http://some.server.com/MRcgi/MRWebServices.pl (with "some server"
being our server - footprints.uwex.edu)

Would you agree? And shouldn't that page return something? That's the
page that if you browse it returns a blank.
