Hi David, Which kind of DOM do you mean? Do you mean ext/simplexml or ext/dom? I don't like make ext/soap dependent on them. Btw you probably can simple make it in PHP itself with something like this. class DomSoapClient extends SoapClient { function __doDomRequest($dom) { return string2dom($this->__doRequest(dom2string($dom), ...)); } } Isn't this enough for you? Or may be I misunderstood you. Thanks.
