Witango-Talk: SOAP client

[MJPinckard]

I'm trying to spec out how to go about accessing/using a SOAP client 
from Witango. We want to add a process to use utility tariff information 
from another project here at the Lab to calculate energy bills estimated 
by my site (which is all in Witango). Someone else will be building the 
SOAP server and getting it to query his database of tariffs. I simply 
need to be able to access a SOAP client to parse a query, and receive 
the results and incorporate them in code returned to users.

The key-value pairs sent back and forth will not change, just the 
"values" in the value part of each pair (which will be supplied from 
Witango calculated variables).

At this point I'm trying to get enough information to put together a 
budget proposal (relative effort or money to buy existing code), and am 
interested in hearing suggestions about how I might go about this. I 
don't particularly care how it happens (via AppleScript (I'm on Mac OSX) 
or, by hard-coding a request in Witango which would send it by IP 
address) but I need to pass values from Witango through SOAP and get 
results back. I don't know anything about SOAP, but am the only one who 
speaks Witango (and it's my site), so I'll be tying whatever we do in...

Any suggestions would help.
