   The best would be to give me the name of your service (and perhaps the
registry where it can be found - unloess it is in the main Mark's
registry) - and the input (in raw XML) that you would like to send to that
service. Then I will see what's happening, and perhaps I can find wher is
the problem.

   That's why I would like to see the full (raw) XML you are sending to
that service.

   Well, you can always send a raw XML to a moby service in taverna -
withou using any of these blue triangles. The create-moby-data widget is
there only for simplest cases. The more complex input you have the more
probably you need to create XML manually and send it as one input to
taverna.
