The API
<http://www.xulplanet.com/references/objref/WebServiceProxyFactory.html>
shows a parameter isAsync for createProxyAsync.

When I create an asynchronous proxy as follows:

var webServiceProxyListener = {
   BabelFishCallback: function (translation) {
           alert('typeof translation: ' + (typeof translation) + '; 
translation: ' + translation);
   }
};

var webServiceProxyFactory = new WebServiceProxyFactory();
webServiceProxyFactory.createProxyAsync(
   'http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/BabelFishService.wsdl',
   'BabelFishPort',
   '',
   true,
   { onLoad: function (webServiceProxy) {
       webServiceProxy.setListener(webServiceProxyListener);
       webServiceProxy.BabelFish('en_pt', 'Do you have the key?');

     }
   }
);

then I get a translation back, however when I try to create a 
synchronous proxy as follows:

var webServiceProxyFactory = new WebServiceProxyFactory();
webServiceProxyFactory.createProxyAsync(
   'http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/BabelFishService.wsdl',
   'BabelFishPort',
   '',
   false,
   { onLoad: function (webServiceProxy) {
       var translation = webServiceProxy.BabelFish('en_pt', 'Do you have 
the key?');
       alert('typeof translation: ' + (typeof translation) + '; 
translation: ' + translation);
     },
     onError: function (error) {
       alert('Error: ' + error);
     }
   }
);

I get an alert showing the return value of the web service method call 
(e.g. webServiceProxy.BabelFish(...)) as a string but the string is empty.
