Thanks very much Bart

For me it responds with (an improperly formatted) error message:

    "    POST body is short"

possibly because I do not set the Content-length property in the POST. 
It works on every other HTTP POST base Web service  implementation I've 
seen however. (And no - I really dont want to serialise my XML again 
just to see how big it is)

thanks for this.  Seems to behave the same FYI

To my mind this is rather mixing GET and POST - but I'd be happy to be 
proved wrong

it may be more legal to do this
