Description

We are creating a web application that accesses Web Services using SOAP. The Application is built in Joomla 1.5, using Fabrik (Joomla Application Builder). I need to have a mortgage calculator access web services and return a calculation.

I was provided a sample soap message. I have replaced the domain name with "ServerDomain" for security reasons.

POST /WebService.asmx HTTP/1.1
Host: webservice.ServerDomain.com
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length
SOAPAction: "http://webservice.ServerDomain.com/CalculateLoan"

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<CalculateLoan xmlns="http://webservice.ServerDomain.com">
<ProductId>int</ProductId>
<CompanyID>string</CompanyID>
<BirthDate1>dateTime</BirthDate1>
<BirthDate2>dateTime</BirthDate2>
<Zip>int</Zip>
<PropertyValue>double</PropertyValue>
<Liens>double</Liens>
</CalculateLoan>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<CalculateLoanResponse xmlns="http://webservice.ServerDomain.com">
<CalculateLoanResult>
<ProductID>int</ProductID>
<ProductName>string</ProductName>
<IndexName>string</IndexName>
<InitialRateOfIndex>string</InitialRateOfIndex>
<RateMargin>double</RateMargin>
<Zip>int</Zip>
<PropertyValue>double</PropertyValue>
<PrincipalLimit>double</PrincipalLimit>
<ServicingFeeReserve>double</ServicingFeeReserve>
<ClosingCosts>double</ClosingCosts>
<Liens>double</Liens>
<NetLoanAmount>double</NetLoanAmount>
<NetTenureAmount>double</NetTenureAmount>
<Message>string</Message>
</CalculateLoanResult>
</CalculateLoanResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

You can see the development site at: http://demo.wmdwebservices.com/workinreverse/index.php?option=com_fabrik&view=form&fabrik=4&random=0&Itemid=2

That leads directly to the Fabrik form I need to add the SOAP calculation to. You can see the calculator under the "calculator" tab.
