Howdy ya'll,
Say, we be mess'n with InfoPath, but ga-dern it just ain't werkn...

Were testing a web service sittn on personal IIS from InfoPath 2003, and it
was working, but now it's not...and were not sure what happened or changed....

The info msg that pops up is:
"InfoPath cannot find or cannot access the specified Web service description"
....the 'Show Details >>' button then provides the following:
*******
The file is not a valid XML file.
The form contains XML that cannot be parsed:
End tag 'td' does not match the start tag 'input'.

Line 71, Position 99
<td><input class="frmInput" type="text"
size="50" name="Contr_acct"></td>
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^

**********
The strange thing here is the start tag is td...but some how InfoPath is
ignoring it...

If any of ya'll can help give a hint, it would be mucho appriciated.
Thanks in advance

Well Forrest sounds like you got yourself in a right pickle,
see the trick here is not the <td> tage but the <input> tag,
what infoPath is complaining about is that the xml looks something like this

<input>
<td></td>

you need a closing </input> tag

hope this helps

Cheers
