Wanted to see if anybody had more ideas off of this:
 
Had been trying to use client side technologies to consume Web services,
Because my users would mostly know javascript, html, and some xslt.
Decided against currently using client side for security setting
reasons,
And somewhat only IE support.
 
Picked up the Web Service Faceplate book,
And had the idea to do a server-side faceplate.

Works by the consumer having an html page with an iFrame
The iFrame does a request to my web service faceplate page with an arg
to a url of an xslt doc on their server
My faceplate page calls the web service, does the transform, and then
renders the results
So it is very lightweight and they still get customized look and feel
 
My simple example is here:
http://www.mperfect.net/passwordweb/webmasters.aspx
WARNING it is a web service for the adult industry . nothing offensive
on that page END WARNING
 
Anyways, the idea ended up being pretty simple,
Anybody else doing something similar?
Or been able to get around the client-side GET request warnings in IE?
Thanks
casey
