Thanks for that useful link about SOAP !

You used the term "soap page" which is not equivalent to saying "SOAP
webservice". A webservice is not a page in common parlance .

As to your answer, any .NET webservice allows GET and POST requests.
If you browse to the asmx file and click any webmethod that uses
parameters, you will find the supported protocols listed. It will also
show you the sample request that must be sent as well as the
parameters and content-type expected. For instance, HTTP Post would
require a content-type of "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" (as
usual). That is what you must replicate.

You can use the HttpWebRequest class or (possibly, but I'm not sure)
the WebClient class to send an HTTP POST request.
