I know that this isn't necessarily the desired solution, but one can create
a GET/POST proxy servlet in a jiffy -- and the problem of creating the body
of a POST request out of a GET form submission boils down to generating
output for a set of name/value pairs.

Whether you can do it depends on what you mean by "Web Service".  It's one
thing to POST some (name,variable) pairs.  It's another to construct a SOAP
envelope + payload and to respond to possible SOAP error messages.

Cheers,
