RE: [SOAP] SOAP "long" Question

Shane (& all), That worked. It was an implementation issue. The guy who developed it said, we have not seen the use 'item' in the three other system's they tested against. Does anyone know how to read an attribute for a given element... <Asset ID="13221" TYPEID="1" AVAILABILITY="Offline" DATE="08/10/2002 03:40 PM"> <metadata> <To>"Harry Ford" &lt;HarryFord@Merck.com&gt;</To> <From>"Ivan Lentini" &lt;IvanLentini@Company.mil&gt;</From> </metadata> </Asset> I need to get the ID, TYPEID, etc. Would this be a SOAP function, an XML function or just a PHP interpretation issue?

Most implementations use 'item', but it looks like you're using one that doesn't. PEAR::SOAP wont care when it recieves something like that, it will still do the right thing, but when you send to another implementation it could make a difference. So you could try: $assetTypes[] = new SOAP_Value('{http://xsd-namespace-url-here}long','long',44); Shane
