Axis with HTTP Get?

Hey all,

I notice that though Axis does allow simple HTTP Get requests (and 
responds with the SOAP Body) I cannot see any way to pass a more complex 
structure to it.

As I develop my WebServices, clients like to have a pretty form they can 
use to check how many features are implemented thus far, and a simple 
HTML form using HTTP Get is the simplest and easiest way to provide this.
The problem is that many of my functions take an XML structure as part 
of the input.

I tried just throwing the xml structure into the HTTP Get to no result 
and was hoping I could avoid writing several servlets to do this, as in 
the final product they'll be useless and I'd prefer not to waste time 
writing them.

So, is there any way that I can pass a structure in using HTTP Get, some 
formatting or something, or is my quest for the easy way fruitless?

Thanks for any help.
