Thanks, I downloaded this and looked over our headers.

For the WSDL file

They are set to text/plain. I have to admit that I have no clue what this means, though my guess is that *no* interpretation is being done, either html or xml.

The content (of the wsdl file) shows up as XML.

For the  .wws file

Content-type is set to text/html

but what is being returned is definitely XML

So I am still confused about why the other party is getting encoded results back.

Try hitting your webservice, with something that gives you the RAW out put, like my httptester or something. See what you get.

We supply a webservice to another group, and all of a sudden, they ran into some problems with it.

One of the problems was that they were getting back the data as encoded...

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/ ">

 <soap:Body>
   <approvers_Response xmlns="witangowebservices">
     <approverdata></approverdata>
     <sddata></sddata>
     <status></status>
   </approvers_Response>
 </soap:Body>

</soap:Envelope>

So I told them that I thought they should be including Content- type: text/xml in the http header - when I do so, I get XML, not encoded HTML

Then they fired back the following:

-------
If we talk about SOAP web service we have to stick to SOAP specifications. This is the main reason of web services. Data can be transfered in heterogeneous environment. I use main stream tools from Microsoft. And I have a significant part of automatically generated code which is supposed to support the standards, and I hardly want to rewrite it. Of cause the tools have their own bugs but it is wrong idea to override the standards.

-------

And here I thought the use of Content-type *was* the standard. I personally think that someone who's using Microsoft tools (.NET, wsdl.exe) is on very shaky grounds here... and that he's wrong. Or am I in error?
