Re: Is there a web services tutorial that is complete, simple, and documented?

" You may find as we did that the further you dig the more confused you 
get."  -  from the article.  Reading that made me feel a little less 
stupid.  If Jon & Susan got confused then Booth stands in good company.

OK.  One step at a time, starting at the end and working to the 
beginning, because that keeps me from going in wildly off-track directions.

I have a web page that asks for a date.  Using javascript, my intention 
is to find the day-name for that submitted date.  I want the URL to be 
http://10.190.90:10100/DoW with a date as a parm. The name of the day 
will be returned by the web service.  I believe the URL request will be 
something like http://10.190.90:10100/DoW?2018-11-02 and the return will 
be Friday.

If that looks OK, then the previous steps would, I believe, be the Web 
Server and the deployed Application Server?
