What are using as a SOAP client? Something in JavaScript? It's
possible that your SOAP client assumes IE-specific features, especially
since it will certainly use the non-standard XMLHttpRequest constructor,
which is a virtual landmine of portability.

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of a generic cross-browser SOAP client
available for JavaScript. You might ask in comp.lang.javascript where
the question is more appropriate. Alternatively, you'll need to fall
back to using XMLHttpRequest directly by yourself, and test across major
browsers in hopes of removing compatibility problems.
