The stuff your server is sending is *not* HTTP responses, but HTTP requests! POST / HTTP/1.1 Host: User-Agent: gSOAP/2.7 definitely doesn't look like a response to me. Dunno how exactly one should work with that server, but HTTP_Request2's scope is sending requests and parsing responses, not vice-versa...

What should proper responses look like?

I want to send a single request and get multiple responses over the same connection.

I *think* that does not conform to HTTP spec.

Ok thanks, i guess our gsoap server doesn't conform to spec in the way that it uses the connection.

I'd also suggest to look at SOAP package that is in PEAR http://pear.php.net/package/SOAP as it may contain the functionality you want.

Thanks, we use wso2's wsf extension which has good wsdl support and supports mtom/xop which we need bc we cant afford to base 64 encode our binary data. It doesnt support keep alive which is why i was looking into http_request2 for communications, and then passing off to wsf for soap parsing. Alas, we're not using proper http anyway. Thanks, Marc
