Mozilla's low level SOAP API

It is cool that Mozilla has a SOAP API.  It could be made much simpler, however.  Other scripting languages are doing it.


See my blog entry from today for some comments. Also, the latest Mozilla code in CVS (in the directory extensions/xmlextras/tests/) has a very handy file called soapproxy.js which defines an object called SOAPProxy, which does bring the interface up to a somewhat higher level (see soapelements.html/soapelementsproxy.js for an example if its usage). Still not at the ActiveState level, but a lot better.
