Hi!

I would appreciate some enlightenment about this topic. I have a very rough idea about what a web service is but my experience is null. I supose it works something like this:

- the web service (a program written in any(?) language) is waiting/listening for a request;
- a request is made (by a client) via a browser (for example);
- the web service treats the request and, when he's done, sends back the answer.

Am I close...?

Thanks!
