RE: Fun with SOAP.

You should be able to parse it manually in PHP, but probably not with a XML
parser or reader.  Simply var_dump() the responses you are getting and write
the code to break it up into values you can use.  In some respects I've
found this easier than XML, which tends at times to be somebody else's idea
of a standard XML response ;-).
