A:

Have a look at Zend_Soap and the native Soap extension. Both have information about how to write a Soap Client.

$client = new SoapClient(null, array('location' => "http://localhost/soap.php", 'uri' => "http://test-uri/", 'style' => SOAP_DOCUMENT, 'use' => SOAP_LITERAL));Do you know what these parameters are referring to and where I might find them - in particular URI and Location. The example isn't well documented.

@baswoni these parameters are options, which you usually pass in when working in non-wsdl mode, e.g. when the first argument to the constructor is null. The options are explained in detail at http://de2.php.net/manual/en/soapclient.soapclient.php

I will be using WSDL to interface with this Web Service, so I am still at a dead-end and I am trying to get an answer for my original question - why is there a PersonalDetails object and a PersonalDetails_Update object? I don't see how the links you have provided help to answer this question?

Answer 2

A:

The structure of the information to send is something like this:

<Envelope>
  <Header/>
  <Body>
    <PersonalDetails_Update>
      <personaldetails>
        <ContactId>[some value]</ContactId>
        <GenderId>[some value]</GenderId>
        <EthnicityId>[some value]</EthnicityId>
        <Title>[some value]</Title>
        <Initials>[some value]</Initials>
        <Honours>[some value]</Honours>
        <FirstName>[some value]</FirstName>
        <Surname>[some value]</Surname>
        <Salutation>[some value]</Salutation>
        <Position>[some value]</Position>
        <Department>[some value]</Department>
        <Organisation>[some value]</Organisation>
        <AccessRequirements>[some value]</AccessRequirements>
        <DietaryNeeds>[some value]</DietaryNeeds>
        <BirthDate>[some value]</BirthDate>
        <IsNewContact>[some value]</IsNewContact>
        <HoldingId>[some value]</HoldingId>
        <WebId>[some value]</WebId>
        <RecruitedId>[some value]</RecruitedId>
      </personaldetails>
    </PersonalDetails_Update>
  </Body>
</Envelope>

PersonalDetails_Update is the service you'll be using personaldetails is the object that will hold the details PersonalDetails defines the details
