Receive XML via POST with ASP.NET
- by Mark Hurd
I have to set up an XML "web service" that receives a POST where the 'Content-type header will specify “text/xml”.'
What is the simplest way to get the XML into an XDocument for access by VB.NET's axis queries?
I don't believe the web service is guaranteed to follow any protocol (e.g. SOAP, etc); just specific tags and sub-tags for various requests, and it will use Basic Authentication, so I will have to process the headers.
(If it matters:
* the live version will use HTTPS, and
* the response will also be XML.)
