Okay, On my original problem, I have been able to authenticate with the web service login service, and extract a cookie as follows from the web-service: $s_Cookie = $agLoginService->agGetCookie(); $s_Cookie = AGSESSION=oxhbjcKtPw5sOymAD8m8KcKR6JL4i+TIE5mZxwOrXLwCRr8iTOvPxA==; Now, I create data access soapclient: $agDataService = new SoapClient($s_DataURL, $a_SoapOptions); //yes I know I should build my own class wrapper around soapClient, but I am trying to make sure I know what to build before I do next in the process I need to set the cookie for the data access service. I tried using: $agDataService->__setCookie('cookie', $s_Cookie); but I don't think it's right because when I call any of the service's functions, I get no data back. This is what their engineer had to say ( he is no help in php at all) This is a question referring the http headers. He needs to set the cookies as given in the examples on the wiki page. The cookie is specified in a response http header as: Set-Cookie. So the http headers he got back are correct. The cookie he has to set is AGSESSION=oxhbjcKtPw5sOymAD8m8KcKR6JL4i+TIE5mZxwOrXLwCRr8iTOvPxA==; There should be an api for setting the cookie if not there is one for setting the http header. Set the http header name for the request (cookie - notice that is different than what you get back from an http response - read the rfc spec for http for all of the details) then set the value. The semi colon at the end is the delimiter for http headers (in the rfc). That is all he needs to do if he gets back some login error that means the cookies did not get set correctly. Any ideas or help will be great.
