Welcome to TheScripts TSDN...

I'm not sure what is the binding problem.
I could not test the code yet, but please give some details about expected result.

Thanks,
Dorin.

It seems that you need to use XSL.
Please take a look at this short tutorial, and try to play with XSL.
You will need to output as HTML.
We cannot write code for you (because of site rules), but we'll try to offer suggestions and small snippets.

Dorin.

Your doctype for the html is incomplete. See the article about doctypes in html/css. In this case, you probably want to use XHTML.

Also, you are using XML attributes in the HTML document that don't exist there.

XML should be written in lower case, too.

Problem generating client proxy with complex return types

Dear all, I am having trouble generating a client proxy for a webservice whose methods return a "complex" type.
