    Hi all,

    sorry for the cross post to the general PHP list as well as the
    SOAP PHP list, but I'm a little bit desperate...

    Ok, for some reason when I am sending the proper objects to the
    __soapCall method, it is not including those objects in the XML
    call itself...

    I am using PHP 5.2.6 now after using 5.2.5 and thinking this may
    be fixed in an upgrade, but it is not...

    ok, here is a dump of the object I am sending the __soapCall
    method as an argument :

    [struct] => CreateCustomerPaymentProfile Object
    (
              [merchantAuthentication] => MerchantAuthenticationType
    Object
                  (
                      [name] => xxxxxxxxx
                      [transactionKey] => xxxxxxxxxx
                  )
              [customerProfileId] => 181854
              [paymentProfile] => CustomerPaymentProfileType Object
                  (
                      [payment] => PaymentSimpleType Object
                          (
                              [creditCard] => CreditCardType Object
                                  (
                                      [cardNumber] => XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
                                      [expirationDate] => XXXX-XX
                                  )
                          )
                      [customerType] => individual
                      [billTo] => CustomerAddressType Object
                          (
                              [firstName] => Tim
                              [lastName] => Traver
                          )
                  )
              [validationMode] => none
          )

    And here is the call that is generated :
    [__last_request] => <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <SOAP-ENV:Envelope
    xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
    xmlns:ns1="https://api.authorize.net/soap/v1/">
    <SOAP-ENV:Body>
     <ns1:CreateCustomerPaymentProfile>
          <ns1:merchantAuthentication>
              <ns1:name>xxxxxxxxxxxx</ns1:name>
              <ns1:transactionKey>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx</ns1:transactionKey>
          </ns1:merchantAuthentication>
          <ns1:customerProfileId>181854</ns1:customerProfileId>
          <ns1:paymentProfile>
              <ns1:customerType>individual</ns1:customerType>
              <ns1:billTo>
                  <ns1:firstName>Tim</ns1:firstName>
                  <ns1:lastName>Traver</ns1:lastName>
              </ns1:billTo>
              <ns1:payment/>
          </ns1:paymentProfile>
      <ns1:validationMode>none</ns1:validationMode>
    </ns1:CreateCustomerPaymentProfile>
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
    </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

    As you can see, all of the object variables are created correctly,
    except that the "payment" object is not. It is simply represented
    by <ns1:payment/> and has no start, and no variables that were
    sent in the object.

    This is very strange, and I can't figure out where to look to try
    and solve this problem, but it is a very big problem.

    I have tried to changed the order of the objects, what the actual
    values of the objects are, but I'm now banging my head as to why
    the soap construction is not including these values...

    Any help would be greatly appreciated,

    Tim.

first thing that comes to mind, the SoapClient::__call() method is deprecated. have you tried using the SoapClient instance directly? for example, if you are in WSDL mode and the wsdl defines a method doStuff(), you can use a SoapClient instance $sc as $sc->doStuff(). i would try that and see what happens. -nathan Thanks for the response Nathan, but that doesn't appear to change anything...

I'm just super confused as to why it would leave an entire object out of the tree that it is sending... Anyone else have any suggestions??? Tim.
