Thanks for your help. Yes, I realize that the web service is called asynchronously. However, I had not gotten that far yet. The HTTPService.send method did not make a request to my web service (which I was monitoring) and so I knew something was not working.
What values could I try passing to the initialized method. Is "id" the name of the HTTPService? What could I pass as an document object?
