Bob,
If the XML formats are widely different, you'll probably have to create
different PHP scripts for each one.
The alternative is to build one huge script which would handle all possible
formats. However, that quickly becomes very difficult to manage. If any of the
companies changes their XML format, you'd have to worry about the changes to
your huge script would affect everyone else.
Sometimes it's just simpler to handle different things in different scripts.
