How to post a SOAP request from a browser?
- by understack
Is it possible to send a SOAP request directly from a browser to service provider? And then parse the output in javascript to show the result?
For example, if I've a SOAP request like this :
POST /InStock HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.org
Content-Type: application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: nnn
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<soap:Envelope
xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-envelope"
soap:encodingStyle="http://www.w3.org/2001/12/soap-encoding">
<soap:Body xmlns:m="http://www.example.org/stock">
<m:GetStockPrice>
<m:StockName>IBM</m:StockName>
</m:GetStockPrice>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
Then can I get the 'IBM stock price' by clicking on a link on a web page? And show result after xml processing.
EDIT
Can I send the whole envelope as POST data?
