hi there, you can do it in 2 ways 1) Either using REST webservices 2) Or using SOAP webservices REST webservices are simple , because they call webservices method ( and pass their arguments ) through query string. And the result is simple XML . Below is an example of calling amazon webservices using url with query string where method name is ItemSearch and rest is its arguments i.e. Service=AWSECommerceService AWSAccessKeyId=1V3JDFGH8CZBDV SearchIndex=Electronics http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/xml?Service=AWSECommerceService&AWSAccessKeyId=1V3JDFGH8CZBDV3P4SAFDSA02&Operation=ItemSearch&SearchIndex=Electronics Where as for SOAP webservices you can use any SOAP library to create webservices server , I personally prefer NuSOAP Libbrary Regards Adeel ----- Original Message ---- From: Roshan Shahare <roshan.shahare@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: nic pune <nicpune2006@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, July 16, 2007 12:07:45 AM Subject: soap + PHP Hi ALL, I have windows application on my local Client. from this application I want to call a php page on some website.
