Hello If I were to host a web service on the same machine as my web site, and pass sensitive information to it, do I need to call it using https? For example, I would reference it using localhost, so won't this information be secure as it's not being transmitted across an insecure channel? EDIT: I should mention that this web service ...

Is there a limitation of the number of webservice call per minute? If yes, where can I set the parameter? What is governing the limit of number of call per minute? It's the Apache, or the application itself? OK, maybe I should express myself clearer. I have two PHP applications. One is calling another one via webservice. And for the fir...
Hi, I want to upload a file to a website via a desktop app and then take the user to the website. The website has a web service, but requires authentication as does the web site. Is there a way to do this without forcing the user to authenticate twice (once in the desktop app and once in the web browser)? Unfortunately, you can't prefi...
Hi, We're having a hard time figuring how these credentials objects work. In fact, they may not work how we expected them to work. Here's an explanation of the current issue.

Before you start flaming, I'm going to tell you that I am trying to convince myself that this is a bad idea. Basically, I'm trying to create a website with some basic accounting functions. My friend, a consultant who only knows excel, asked if this could be an excel spreadsheet instead of a web interface. I found myself thinking, why i...
I'm trying to send a SOAP request using SOAPpy as the client. I've found some documentation stating how to add a cookie by extending SOAPpy.HTTPTransport, but I can't seem to get it to work. I tried to use the example here, but the server I'm trying to send the request to started throwing 415 errors, so I'm trying to accomplish this wit...
A business partner has suggested building a web services library with JSON-RPC rather that SOAP. (note they are not building in .NET necessarily, but I am) I am a potential consumer of this data. I've used JSON for client-based Ajax calls in the past, but this web services library will be used primarily for server-side calls and syncin...
Hey, I've got this nice little piece of code, much like all the other versions of this method of upload using WSS WebServices. I've got one major problem though - once I have uploaded a file into my doc list, and updated the list item to write a comment/description, the file is stuck there. What I mean is that this method will not overwr...

I'm really hoping there's an existing service for something like this. I have a location (could be GPS coordinates or a street address, I can use geocoding or reverse geocoding services to switch between them) and I want to find a business that's listed as being approximately at that place. If this service doesn't already exist, I'm thi...
Is it true that any REST based API to upload videos will always require you to have the video file on your server i.e. it is not possible to pass it directly to that web service? I am just trying to rule out all the possible APIs that are open to me. Anyone know of an API I can make use of to upload directly from the users machine so t...
I have spent about half a day searching for an answer to this question and am slowly becoming frustrated. I am working with a Web service that returns an XmlNode as its response. I would like to be able to take the XML data reference by the node and view it with a data grid view. Does any one know if this is possible? I am using the fo...
