Difference between XML Over HTTP & SOAP Over HTTP

Is SOAP over HTTP a subset of XML over HTTP since I assume SOAP also an xml that confirms to a schema (SOAP schema)? I assume XML over HTTP service can either be accessed using GET or POST method. Does SOAP over HTTP always use POST method? In case of XML over HTTP I assume the disadvantage is that schema file has to be shared with all the consumers whereas in case of SOAP over HTTP it will be a single WSDL file. Would it be possible to help in letting me know the difference and also advantage of one over the other?Is SOAP over HTTP a subset of XML over HTTP sin
