Hello,
 i have a problem using a .NET WSDL Webservice from PHP. Using both the
 NuSOAP lib for PHP4, and the build-in SOAP lib for PHP5 it seems that the
 SOAP client cannot pass a variable amount of complex datatypes to the WSDL
 webservice.
 
 This is the request-structure we've been using:
 
 <EzCreateAuctionArray xmlns=http://www.blabla.com>
 <mySewInfo>
 <UserToken>string</UserToken>
 <UserID>string</UserID>
 <EnvironmentID>int</EnvironmentID>
 </mySewInfo>
 <theColl>
 <SimpleItemType>
 <Title>string</Title>
 <Subtitle>string</Subtitle>
 <Description>string</Description>
 </SimpleItemType>
 <SimpleItemType>
 <Title>string</Title>
 <Subtitle>string</Subtitle>
 <Description>string</Description>
 </SimpleItemType>
 </theColl>
 </EzCreateAuctionArray>
 
 as you can see this structure is setup to accept a variable amount of
 <SimpleItemType> datastructures. When setting up the correct data in PHP i
 am using associative arrays and this works fine. The problem is that the
 associative index-key needs to be exactly the same as the item-name in the
 WSDL request structure. So if i f.e. use "theColtest123" instead of
 "theColl" the request cannot be created correctly as there isn't a match
 between the WSDL and my input data structure. This is not really a problem,
 but it becomes one when i want to add multiple items of the
 "SimpleItemType". It's impossible to add more than 1 of these to an
 associative array because the key has to be unique. And by using other
 key-names the WSDL structure is not the same anymore, so the request isn't
 passed.
 
 Can anyone tell me if there is a way to pass a variable amount of complex
 datatypes from within PHP to a WSDL SOAP webservice?
 
 Cheers! Olaf
