When calling a remote Web service in Internet Explorer, errors can and will occur. The trick is how to debug the result's errorDetail object, to find as many clues as possible regarding the source of the problem. The code property is a string defining the fault type. The four possible values are:

  • VersionMismatch
  • MustUnderstand
  • Client
  • Server

Try calling a Web service with a wrong function name. You will receive an errorDetail object where code is equal to Client, inferring that the error occurs at the client side, before reaching the Web service.
