That's not a valid XML fragment for starters.

use SOAP::WSDL +trace => qw(dispatch);
my $soap = SOAP::WSDL->;new(wsdl => 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx/somedoc.asmx')
+; # edited
$soap -> wsdlinit();
$soap -> servicename('Web Mechanic');
my $transport = $soap -> call('Insert' => (
Firstname => $FirstName )); # previously defined

Why are you calling the 'call' method of SOAP::WSDL? That's SOAP::Lite silliness.
Call the methods exposed by the remote service instead.

Please understand - I know very little about SOAP and WSDL in general, and reading the documentation for SOAP::WSDL is like trying to learn English by reading a dictionary. Yes, it defines certain things, but what I really need is some indication as to when, why, and where I would use them to perform my task at hand. Maybe I'm asking too much here. I'm reading as much as I can about all this. I'm using 'call' because that is what several examples use in the SOAP::WSDL docs. As for the error message, I'm only showing you what my log file has in it.	[reply]
