Hi all,

I'm having yet another fiddly problem using SOAP::Lite. I'm connecting to a very picky webservice which insists on specific prefixes for all the namespaces in a request.

The problem I'm having is that it expects the soap envelope to look like: 

<e:Envelope 
    xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:d="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
    xmlns:e="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

But the closest I've managed to get with SOAP::Lite is: 
<e:Envelope 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
    xmlns:soapenc="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" 
    e:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" 
    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
    xmlns:e="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

So, I need a way to change the prefixes xsi and xsd to i and d respectively, and a way to remove the soapenc namespace and the encodingStyle.

Any thoughts?
