Set objHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
Set xmlDOC =Server.CreateObject("MSXML.DOMDocument")
'The following line indicate the WebService we will use.

'a simple addition online caculator.
strWebserviceURL = "http://localhost/WebService/Service1.asmx/Add"
'setup parameters and their values
strRequest = "a=15&b=26"
objHTTP.Open "POST", strWebserviceURL, False
'Setup Content-Type
objHTTP.SetRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
objHTTP.Send(strRequest)
bOK = xmlDOC.load(objHTTP.responseXML)
'Check http status
if objHTTP.Status=200 then
xmlStr = xmlDOC.xml
xmlStr = Replace(xmlStr,"&lt;","<",1,-1,1)
xmlStr = Replace(xmlStr,"&gt;",">",1,-1,1)
Response.Write xmlStr
else
Response.Write objHTTP.Statu & "<br>"
Response.Write objHTTP.StatusText
