[jcworking2000]

hi all,

 

i am new to php and web service but i am trying to connect to a database using web services in php, i am able to add the web service to my page but just wondering how to capture the response and display it? in the following code, it suppose to print out "hello world". thanks for your help in advance.

 

$xml = "<Process_MM_Test>Hello World</Process_MM_Test>";

ini_set('soap.wsdl_cache_enabled', 0);   

 

$client = new SoapClient("xxx.asmx?wsdl");

$response = $client->__soapCall("Process_MM_Test", array("xml_formatted_string" => $xml));

Looking at the documentation (http://us.php.net/manual/en/soapclient.soapcall.php) it looks like __soapCall should return either a simple value or a associative array.  To see what is being returned by __soapCall, do this:

 

$xml = "<Process_MM_Test>Hello World</Process_MM_Test>";
ini_set('soap.wsdl_cache_enabled', 0);    

$client = new SoapClient("xxx.asmx?wsdl");
$response = $client->__soapCall("Process_MM_Test", array("xml_formatted_string" => $xml));

print_r($response);

it looks like you're getting an error then. from the documentation:

 

On error, if the SoapClient object was constructed with the trace  option set to FALSE, a SoapFault object will be returned.
