Why else would I be asking about this :\ And you can't "install" it as part of your application? Seriously, there's no reason that you should not be able to use the PEAR::SOAP or another script such as that. I would focus your efforts on getting a more proven solution than trying to have cross-platform SOAP JS code or using Java just for this. And, as others have said, Firefox is cross-platform and a viable alternative to crazy Java or JS coding to make it work in both FF and IE. > > On 25/01/2006, at 4:32 AM, Joshua Eichorn wrote: > > > The proper way to handler this is too create a proxy on your server > > and have your server send the soap calls. > > > > You could add soap support to HTML_AJAX its "just" writing a new > > serializer.
