Hi guys. I've googled but found so many pages that I'm not sure what to use. I want to use PHP to make use of SOAP. I've found: -nuSoap -libxml(2) -php-soap -and others which seemed less important. Can you recommend which one to use? and which one is the most supported. Also if I've missed some that you feel I should know about please let me know. Thanks in advance. Angelo

Not sure, but there's already a couple of relevant classes in PEAR: http://pear.php.net/search.php?q=soap&in=packages&x=0&y=0 A hot tip is to always search in the packages there. :) http://pear.php.net/packages.php Warm Regards, Torgny

Who uses PEAR? Mess of old unsupported and undocumented libraries which only their authors (maybe) can use?

LOL, what does your code look like huh? I use pear when documentation is available or API docs are easily understood. DB, Mime_Mail, HTTP_REQUEST are a few Ive used and still do, your obviously not experienced enough to read and reuse others code

I would recommend PHP5 SOAP extension, based on libxml2. It works without problems and without messing with PEAR. You can start with this tutorial: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-phpws/?ca=dgr-lnxw06PHP5soap Petr
