  // Here is an example of an HTTP POST Request we'll be sending:

  // POST /WebServices/MFET/ HTTP/1.1
  // Content-Type: text/xml
  // SOAPAction: NewSubmission
  //  
  // <soapenv:Envelope
  //   xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
  //   xmlns:tem="http://tempuri.org/"
  //   xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
  //   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  //   <soapenv:Header/>
  //   <soapenv:Body>
  //     <tem:NewSubmission>
  //       <tem:UserName>yourusername</tem:UserName>

  //     </tem:NewSubmission>
  //   </soapenv:Body>
  // </soapenv:Envelope>

  // In the above XML, the "TRANSMISSION_XML_FILE_CONTENTS_AS_BASE64" contains the base64 encoded
  // string of the XML file that contains "<Transmission> ... </Transmission>"
  // First let's load the transmission XML file and get the contents as base64.
