HTTP GET not enabled in test form

[Joseph]

I have installed .NET framework 1.1. I am using the test form to test the
web service remotely and in the machine.config, I have enabled the HTTP GET
and HTTP POST protocols for web service. However, when I run the test form,
unlike the test form in .NET framework 1.0 that uses HTTP GET protocol, the
..NET framework 1.1 uses HTTP POST. How I can make the test form to use HTTP
GET for testing?

Below is the <protocol> section of web service in my machine.config file:

<protocols>
<add name="HttpSoap1.2"/>
<add name="HttpSoap"/>
<add name="HttpPost"/>
<add name="HttpGet"/>
<!--<add name="HttpPostLocalhost" />-->
<add name="Documentation"/>
</protocols>


Thanks,

Joseph

Hi Joseph,

I am not sure about what you mean "test form". If we have add:

<add name="HttpPost"/>
<add name="HttpGet"/>

in machine.config, and use IE directly open the asmx:

http://localhost/WebService1/Service1.asmx?op=HelloWorld

It will return information for three methods:

SOAP
HTTP GET
HTTP POST

What I mean by "test form" is the "webpage" where the "Invoke" button is
located and parameter values are entered when you fire up the web method.

I have the HttpPost and HttpGet in machine.config already. The information
for the three methods of protocols are shown below the Invoke button. When
using .NET framework 1.1, above the parameter textboxes and Invoke button,
the page shows:

Test
To test the operation using the HTTP POST protocol, click the 'Invoke'
button.


Notice above that "HTTP POST" is used by default, while if .NET framework
1.0 is used "HTTP GET" protocol is used by default. I want to use "HTTP GET"
when testing my web services. Is there a way to change the default protocol
back to HTTP GET?

Thanks,
Joseph
