Web Service - How To Consume

[stnkyminky]

I'm a bit new at php so my apologizes. I have a web service developed in vb.Net. The address would be

http://localhost/Service1/Service1.asmx

In this web service I exposed a function, Foo(name), that takes a name and sends it back to the client. In .Net I would make a reference to the web service in my project.

ex. dim ws as new localhost
name = ws.Foo(stnkyminky)
debug.print name


how would I accomplish consuming the web services in PHP?


Thanks

I think in this case, you would need to create a SOAP(XML) message to send back to the server to invoke and consume the service.

Here are some links:

and a link to the NuSOAP page which has a lot of the coding done for you
