RE: Invoking Apache soap web services from browser client / IBM W SDE
Sven, I got the WSDE R0.5(alfa)and WSTK 2.2 from the IBM Web Service CD. They should be the latest version. Could you tell me the tool to generate Browser Based Client is a GUI tool or some API that I can use? If it is an available tool, is it in the IDE or I need to run a seperate script to invoke it? WSDE and WSTK have a lot of stuff so it seems that I couldn't find the samples... Thanks a lot. -Chengmin -Original Message- From: Sven Struyf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, June 08, 2001 8:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Invoking Apache soap web services from browser client / IBM W SDE Hi, If you also download the Web Services Development Toolkit (WSTK)from Alphaworks, you get a few examples that can help you get forward.

RE: Invoking Apache soap web services from browser client / IBM WSDE
If you are using Internet Explorer 5.0, take a look at the Microsoft WebService behavior at http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/webservice/overview.asp. You may find more details at http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/author/webservice/using.asp. This behavior only needs a few JavaScript lines and is very easy to use. The SOAP response messages are returned via callbacks to the HTML pages which have issued the requests. I've used it with Tomcat 3.2.1 and Apache SOAP 2.1 and it works quite well.

Re: Invoking Apache soap web services from browser client / IBM WSDE
I believe there is also another alternative that can be used as a small browser-based client: 'SoapRMI'. It is only 183KB (including an XML parser) and is available here: http://www.extreme.indiana.edu/soap/rmi/download/. And don't blame me if it all goes pear-shaped - I've never used it!

Tom (and all), Take a look at the 'Web Services Development Environment' at the IBM AlphaWorks website. It requires some (heavy) downloads, but it's really worth it!

If you can count on JScript (or VBScript) with MSXML, the approach in http://www.architag.com/events/GetFile.html?show=getWeather.htm seems to work fine calling on Apache SOAP, although I did set xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction", "''") xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=iso-8859-1") If you're using Mozilla, look at http://www.mozilla.org/xmlextras/ and report back what you find because I haven't used that yet :-) As an alternative that "works" fine even with lesser browsers, you can (I did) construct a "PassAlong.jsp" such that PassAlong.jsp?router=&envelope=Y (where is presumably something like http://localhost:8080/soap/servlet/rpcrouter and is the actual SOAP envelope, constructed in JavaScript or typed into a textarea) will construct the SOAP headers, open the connection, receive the result from the rpcrouter and pass it back to the client browser; better, at times, is to add a third parameter, xsl=, and use that to select an XSLT stylesheet for serverside processing of the SOAP result.

Invoking Apache soap web services from browser client
Hi All Does anyone know how to invoke a web service deployed on Apache SOAP from a client browser. The samples that are available illustrate the usage thru a java client only. How should the message be sent so as to make the apache soap router understand the request sent from a client browser. The browser client that i am looking at does not use applets, but only pure HTML/XML. Apache SOAP does not seem to give any API which we could use through the browser. Even the Apache Javascript requires some kind of installation on the client side for it to work. Help please !!!
