XML / SOAP - NameSpace -- dotnet xml

Hi everybody,

I'm stuck in some SOAP webservices running on an IBM mainframe,
connecting to them from a .NET application (WinForm).

The SOAP server does understand differently the two following SOAP
messages extracts (calling the getQuote method) :

<ns:getQuote xmlns:ns="urn:iessoapd:pgm">
....
</ns:getQuote>

*and*

<getQuote xmlns="urn:iessoapd:pgm">
....
</getQuote>

My question is : are these two notations equivalent ?
As a matter of fact, the first code works, the second one calls an
amazing error on the server (HTTP 204 : no Content).

Thanx for your help.

Yes, the two notations are identical - from an XML InfoSet point of
view.

What do the bodies of the getQuotes element look like?

Thanx for your response Christoph.

The bodies are quite simple and do not require any namespace.

(Working)
<ns:getQuote xmlns:ns="urn:iessoapd:pgm">
<Symbol xsi:type="xsd:string">Value</Symbol>
</ns:getQuote>

and

(Not Working)
<getQuote xmlns="urn:iessoapd:pgm">
<Symbol xsi:type="xsd:string">Value</Symbol>
</getQuote>

I tried in the second message (not working) to undeclare the parent
namespace (<Symbol xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns="">Value</Symbol>) but it did
not change anything.

Thanx again !
