note 15443 added to function.wddx-deserialize

if you have WDDX data coming from a third party source and it isnt being parsed correctly in your php, try translating their WDDX. we have a third party sending us WDDX from cold fusion, and it uses a <recordset> element, which PHP seems to ignore (looking around the web we found some other people having trouble) so the (hopefully temporary) solution we found was to translate the WDDX midstream and then we were able to parse it: $url = "http://somedomain.com/blah.wddx"; $fp = fopen($url,"r"); $page = fread($fp,10000); fclose($fp); $page = str_replace("<recordset","<struct",$page); $page = str_replace("</recordset","</struct",$page); $page = str_replace("<field","<var",$page); $page = str_replace("</field","</var",$page); $values = wddx_deserialize($page); while(list($key,$val) = each($values)) { print "$key => $val<BR>"; } this works for us. it's a hack, and hopefully php will support this in the future or something. http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.wddx-deserialize.php
