This is what forms > are for (well, "GET forms" anyhow); see XForms[1] or RDF Forms[2]. Mark, I see WSDL as very similar to a form language. A form describes an interface to a human user, a WSDL describes an interface to a developer or to a system. If a set of resources identified by a parametrizable URI is a web service, it should be describable using WSDL. Best regards, Jacek Kopecky Systinet Corporation http://www.systinet.com/
