I was receiving a timeout error trying to consume one of my web services, so I
decided to try a public one...BabelFish.  I get the same error.  I tried
several other web services listed at xmethods.net and I get the same thing.  
Here is the error:

"Error","jrpp-279","03/11/05","13:22:29",,"Could not generate stub objects for
web service invocation.Name:
http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/BabelFishService.wsdl. WSDL:
http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/BabelFishService.wsdl.
java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out It is recommended that you use
a web browser to retrieve and examine the requested WSDL document for
correctness. If the requested WSDL document can't be retrieved or it is
dynamically generated, it is likely that the target web service has programming
errors.

And here is my invoke call:
<cfinvoke
   webservice = "http://www.xmethods.net/sd/2001/BabelFishService.wsdl"
   method = "BabelFish"
   returnVariable = "foo">
        <cfinvokeargument name="translationmode" value="en_es"/>
        <cfinvokeargument name="sourcedata" value="Hello World, Friend"/>
</cfinvoke>

Any ideas?
