How can I set up a REST web service that returns HTML

Hi,

I have followed the manual and was able to create the REST service.

I have used the calendar wsdl + modification. (I have added the echo method see the Calculator.wsdl bellow).

The echo method gets a string and then returns HTML as result.

Instead of returning the HTML I get an XML with the HTML embedded (see the tcpmon.txt bellow which was recorded by TCPMON.exe).

Is returning bare HTML possible under axis2/c?

-Sam.

================================= Start tcpmon.txt:

SENDING DATA..

/* sending time = 10:13:51*/

Currently, the returned value gets embedded inside a soap message.

Don't use Axis. Write a servlet, asp, extension dll etc that creates HTML and returns it for a get request.
