Yes. Now I understand.

I'm looking through it right now. Unfortunately every SOAP toolkit is
different (often using conflicting terminology for the same stuff) so it
takes me a while to figure each out.

From a pedagogic point of view, may I suggest you start your
documentation with a SOAP "hello world." As in:

use SOAP::Transport::HTTP;

SOAP::Transport::HTTP::CGI ->  dispatch_to('Demo') -> handle; 

package Demo; 
sub hi { return "hello, world"; } 
sub bye { return "goodbye, cruel world"; } 

I'm trying to work up a talk on how EASY it is to work with SOAP in
scripting languages. I'll try to boil your example down to the barest
essence and see how close it gets to SOAP::Lite. :-)
