problem with null parameters passed from XMLHTTP in javascript to C# Webservice with SOAP

[magister pips]

Hello, I have encountered some strange behaviour when using the
XMLHTTP Request object in Javascript to return xml from a C#
Webservice Method. I create a SOAP envelope and send it off to the
Webservice, which I have debug points in, which when hit I can see
that all the parameters are coming thru as null. I can't figure out
why this is, any experts out there would be a great help.

Here is my javascript:

function showMsga()
{
if(window.ActiveXObject) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
}
catch(e) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); }
catch(e) {
req = false;
}
}
}
else if(window.XmlHttpRequest) {
try {
req = new XmlHttpRequest();
}
catch(e) {
req = false;
}
}

var wer = window.location;

if(req) {
var strEnvelope = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>
\n"+ "<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=\" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\""
+
" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\"" + " xmlns:soap=
\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\">\n" +
"<soap:Body>\n" +
"<MyMethod xmlns=\"https://freedom.org/MyService\">\n" +
"<tpid xsi:type=\"xsd:string\">3083</tpid>\n" +
"<poid xsi:type=\"xsd:string\">1045</poid>\n" +
"</MyMethod>" + "</soap:Body>" + "</soap:Envelope>";

req.onreadystatechange = GetMessage;
req.open("POST","http://"+window.location.hostname+"/MyService/
Service.asmx",true);
req.setrequestheader("Content-type", "text/xml");
req.setRequestHeader("SOAPAction","https://freedom.org/MyMethod");
req.send(strEnvelope);
}
}

here is the C# for the WebService method

[WebMethod]
public string MyMethod(string tpid, string poid)
{
int userID = Users2.GetUserID();

DataProvider dp = DataProvider.Instance();

if(Convert.ToInt32(poid)>0)
{
return dp.GetPostDetail(Convert.ToInt32(poid), userID);
}
else
{
return dp.GetTopicDetail(Convert.ToInt32(tpid), userID);
}
}

originally the method took integers but I switched them to strings in
the hope they would work,
any and all comments and hints are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

I'd rather he crosspost (as he did) than multipost. Perhaps you forgot to
type " ... to so many unrelated newsgroups."

What is truly ironic is that he did what he asked not be done.
