     Scott,
     I appologize for my issues...if I add 'callp httpapi_debug(*on)' my
     program will not compile.� I get the following error,, the name or
     indicator is not defined (HTTPAPI).� I have libhttp added to my
     library list.� I did find this in my link, Error 500:
     java.lang.NullPointerException
     The purpose of the project is to send data over to the webservice.
     The java programmer created a service web service program which
     takes
     you to a web page for testing.� I cannot access this as I am on a
     virtual and do not have access, however I have had someone else
     paste
     in the xml and it seems to work right from there.
     From SOAPUI I asked someone to try and it will not work from SOAPUI.
     I dont have the authority to try from SOAPUI either.
     I am not sure if I should even be using the http_url_post or the
     http_url_post_xml.� The service I was given by the java programmer
     says he is expecting one paramether but the http commands expects
     more
     which I am passing.
     I think it must have to do with the wrong values in the paramets I
     am
     passing.� Were you able to open up my attachments to see my
     program.
     Scott, thanks so much for your help.� I am at a loss of what to do
     and
     no one here seems to know either.
