I agree that it seems to be because they are internally stored as associative arrays, something which is more obvious to the user when sending requests. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-02-03 15:48:19] PiRanha_777 at yahoo dot fr I have the same problem. I think the problem comes from the fact that, as the SOAP response is stored in associative arrays, when there are 2 (or more) tags with the same name the value of the second tag replace the value of first one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-01-16 01:22:43] marc dot greenstock at gmail dot com I am experiencing the same problem with the MSN Search API. More specifically on the SourceRequest objects, where there are 4 tags of the same name. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-05-21 17:03:47] dmitry@php.net May be the problem in WSDL file? Can you put here WSDL file, SOAP request (XML) and SOAP response? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-05-07 20:36:10] ronunism at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ Using PHP5's SoapClient to recieve a SOAP envelope that contains multiple instances of the same tag, the resulting object retains only the last item of the given tag name. E.G. Receiving a SOAP message containing: <dogs> <dog>Scooby</dog> <dog>Lassie</dog> <dog>Benji</dog> </dogs> Results in an object containing: [dogs] => stdClass Object ( [dog] => Benji ) I'm using a perl SOAP::Lite script for the server, and php5's SOAP for the client. When the tags are changed to be unique (e.g. <dog1>, <dog2>, <dog3>) all three examples are returned as expected. Reproduce code: --------------- [ TestFunction is a simple function that returns a SOAP envelope containing: <dogs> <dog>Scooby</dog> <dog>Lassie</dog> <dog>Benji</dog> </dogs> $client is the PHP5 SoapClient variable. ] $test = $client->__call('TestFunction', array($a)); echo '<pre>'; print_r($test); echo '</pre>'; Expected result: ---------------- stdClass Object ( [dogs] => array ( [0] => Scooby [1] => Lassie [2] => Benji ) ) Actual result: -------------- stdClass Object ( [dogs] => stdClass Object ( [dog] => Benji ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28321&edit=1
