Re: HTTPAPI question

Greg and John, I am currently fighting the same battle with a SOAP Web Service. I am so close but...

Both of you have hit the nail on the head.

translating their online documentation into what I actually need to do
(with the tools that I have).

It has been hard and they assume we are using a tool they have and send instructions for it.
I am getting where I have a good understand HTTPAPI but giving them what they want in the exact format, a lot of trial and error.

I think that is the case for a lot of us. It is one of the reasons I
think it is worth exploring the open source PASE options. Node.js in
particular but also Python are closer to "speaking the same language"
as what you're likely to encounter in the documentation

John (or anyone), can you recommend a starting point to self-train myself using one of these open source options. And what one to use. I know my company will not pay for any product at this time so the free open source is the way to go.
