title: HTTP SOAP\GET\POST
body: <p>I created my first web service 2 days ago in VS 2008 and was thinking about consuming it when I came across the following questions about web services:</p>
  
  <p>1) My web service Test Invocation page(canned page which comes as a part of .NET framework) does not displays any sample HTTP GET request\response messages. The only messages it displays are of HTTP POST, SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 . Shall I assume that web services are some how not encouraging the use of HTTP GET protocol for calling them?</p>
  
  <p>2) To make an HTTP-POST call through browser, I created a sample html page. Can I do the same to make sample HTTP-SOAP call as well? If yes, would the response be in SOAP format? Can anyone send me such an html page.</p>
  
  <p>3) How do we send Host Header information while make a call to web service through a browser?</p>
  
  <p>4) Why do we call it a 'HTTP-SOAP call' when we make a call to web service using POST method(method='post')?</p>
  
  <p>5) Why HTTP-SOAP should take precedence over HTTP-GET and HTTP-POST?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks and Regards'
