All the code/wsdl/xml is available here
And the demo client (Source Code) and server (Source Code)

In this multi-part blog im going to talk through how to set up a php soap (Simple Object Access Protocol) server that can be added as a web-reference through visual studio. Im mainly doing this because it took me along time to figure out the finer details of wsdl and soap, and i'd like to try and save other people the same hassle.

This is a small side project that i did in my first year of university, I've since updated it as it was a bit hacky and built for .net v1 (now v2). It can :

• Show simple menus
• Show Titles (see below)

Ok, being someone who likes php, i get annoyed at the many sites trying to teach people the language who have example login scripts that use something like:

$result=mysql_query("select * from users where Username=$username and Password=$password");
