Hi Damian One thought, which doesn't directly address your question but might provide an alternative (possibly simpler?) method to achieve what you want to do:
How about creating a datastream, type "External" or "Redirect" for your IMAGE_URL - ie a Fedora datastream that acts as a proxy for the IMAGE_URL? You could then reference this Fedora datastream directly in the method. Optionally you could reference the Fedora datastream URI (eg info:fedora/ns:pid/experiment_image) in the RELS_EXT rather than the external URL. (this also potentially has the benefit of introducing a level of indirection, so if for instance you had to change the external service that is currently providing these images, you would just update what the Fedora datastream points to).

In my case it would be something like: http://myserver:port/saxon/Imagemanip?url=(RELS-EXT#MY:PRED)&op=resize.. ...."/> Then, under the method getChangedImage I'd have the appropriate method called from WSDL (that I would have to create of course...like in the Collection example) http://myserver:port/fedora/objects/MY:PID/methods/getChangedImage Is it possible at all? If so, could you please help me with that?
