I could get some rudimentary stuff to work just fine, but anything complex required a migraine's-worth of configuration and nit-picky settings on both sides. The technology may have improved since I played with it last, but I would also recommend using a web service to accomplish the interoperability. I'm currently working with a .NET project... I turned the entire thing into a WCF REST service that will conditionally send SOAP or JSON replies based on the service client. I can now hook it into Javascript with a prototype built in jQuery, call it using a PHP SOAP interface, reference it directly in other ASP.NET projects, and so on and so forth. You'll get a wealth of benefits aside from making your life easier with bridging the two languages. :) HTH, // Todd -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
