Dear devlab2012!

Thanks for reply.

Anyway, then how do I make a PHP file accepting '/method_name' as query string?

Thank you,

I am not very sure about how it works in PHP, but you can try passing it as a query string variable as follows:<br />
<br />
http://mydomain.com/my_web_service.php?MethodName=MyTestMethod<br />
<br />
In your php file, you can check the value of MethodName using $_GET[&quot;MethodName&quot;] and do the processing accordingly.<br />
<br />
Also, check the following link for creating a basic web service in PHP:<br />

Dear Experts!<br />
<br />
I am trying to call a SOAP based web service using AJAX.<br />
<br />
How do I address a specific function/method in the web service?<br />
<br />
And which parameter name should be used for the POST of the SOAP XML?<br />
<br />
I do not want to use any js libs.<br />
<br />
I expect I should use a parameter for the name of the function/method in the web service, but which name should this parameter have?<br />
<br />
The web service is PHP based.<br />
<br />
The WS is entirely SOAP based, only using a SOAP request XML message and SOAP reponse XML message.<br />
<br />
In anticipation<br />
Thank you<br />
<br />
Best regards,<br />
Henrik

How do I address a specific function in a web service using AJAX?

A Web service is a method of communication between two electronic devices over a network. It is a software function provided at a network address over the Web with the service always on as in the concept of utility computing. A web service has an interface described in Web Services Description Language (WSDL). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages. There are two major classes of Web services: REST-compliant web services, and Arbitrary web services.

Web Services

Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) is a group of interrelated Web development techniques used on the client-side to create asynchronous Web applications. With AJAX, web applications can send data to and retrieve from a server asynchronously (in the background) without interfering with the display and behavior of the existing page. HTML and CSS can be used in combination to mark up and style information. The Document Object Model (DOM) is accessed with JavaScript to dynamically display and allow interaction with the information presented.

AJAX

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.
