Web Service Use

Using the Web Service Example

In the previous page we created a Web service.

The FahrenheitToCelsius() function can be tested here: FahrenheitToCelsius

The CelsiusToFahrenheit() function can be tested here: CelsiusToFahrenheit

These functions use HTTP POST and will send an XML response like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
<string xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">38</string>


Put the Web Service on Your Web Site

Using a form and HTTP POST, you can put the web service on your site, like this:

Fahrenheit to Celsius:
Celsius to Fahrenheit:


How To Do It

Here is the code to add the Web Service to a web page:

<form target="_blank" action='http://www.example.com
/webservices/tempconvert.asmx/FahrenheitToCelsius' 
method="POST"> 
<table>
  <tr>
    <td>Fahrenheit to Celsius:</td>
    <td><input class="frmInput" type="text" 
    size="30" name="Fahrenheit"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td></td>
    <td align="right"> <input type="submit" 
    value="Submit" class="button"></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>

<form target="_blank" action='http://www.example.com
/webservices/tempconvert.asmx/CelsiusToFahrenheit' 
method="POST"> 
<table>
  <tr>
    <td>Celsius to Fahrenheit:</td>
    <td><input class="frmInput" type="text" 
    size="30" name="Celsius"></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td></td>
    <td align="right"> <input type="submit" 
    value="Submit" class="button"></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>

Substitute the "www.example.com" in the code above with the address of your web site.
