Since this is such a long post, I'll put all of my comments up here, rather than throughout the post or at the bottom. Thanks for taking the time to generate more stubs, and confirming my suspicions that this is a PHP bug, Michael. However, you state that, "The error is that php names the individual structs/complex types item...", but I'm pretty sure the error is in the xsi:type attribute of the BARS element. PHP fills the xsi:type attribute with "<my namespace>:ArrayOfBar", when it should be "<SOAP-ENC namespace>:Array". Every other client I've seen specifies the type of an array element as "<SOAP-ENC namespace>:Array", so I'm almost sure that this is a PHP bug. Where do I go from here? Shall I submit a PHP bug report? -Peter "Michael Rasmussen" <mir@miras.org> wrote in message pan.2006.01.18.00.19.56.504455@miras.org">news:pan.2006.01.18.00.19.56.504455@miras.org... > On Tue, 17 Jan 2006 11:04:21 -0800, Peter Guy wrote: > > > So, my questions: > > > > 1.
