Hi again, some posts and some examples (Shane's too) contain user-defined classes with "interesting" methods: _gettype() and __to_soap(). They seem to recur from time to time and to have a special meaning. Now the question is: are these some kind of "magic" functions that are treated in a particular way by the SOAP serializer? AFAIK they are not managed by the library (can't "grep" them in the sources). Is there any policy for declaring and using these functions? Bye Michele
