Subject: Ruby Syntax and SOAP Web Service

I need a good tutorial to show how to create a RUBY
SOAP request when I have an example SOAP request file. The example in my
book is next to useless.  Also, how can I see that SOAP xml is being sent
and the client response?  

An example, I am attempting to call this service
(http://www.webservicex.net/uszip.asmx?op=GetInfoByZIP).  

What I need to know is which namespace to use for the request. Also, do I
need to add anything to specify the Envelope namespaces.

Thanks


P.S.
This is the example Soap request.

POST /uszip.asmx HTTP/1.1
Host: www.webservicex.net
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length
SOAPAction: "http://www.webserviceX.NET/GetInfoByZIP"

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Body>
    <GetInfoByZIP xmlns="http://www.webserviceX.NET">
      <USZip>string</USZip>
    </GetInfoByZIP>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
