web service trouble

[Silvano]

hi all,

I have created the web service and i am trying to make it work now; from visual studio, the service is created and saved on the remote machine; the service.asmx file is set as start page; it appears that everything is ok but I cannot get it to work; when tested i get the option to download or open the service.asmx file; the file looks like this:

<%@ WebService Language=&quot;vb&quot; Codebehind=&quot;Service1.asmx.vb&quot; Class=&quot;WebService1.Service1&quot; %>

the service itself is only this:
<WebMethod()> Public Function HelloWorld() As String
HelloWorld = &quot;testing, testing...&quot;
End Function

there is no error messages, just the attempt to debug the file for which I do not have the debugging privilages so cannot do;
when runned localy as localhost, everything is fine...

can you help here? what am I missing?

thanks
