Hey all,
Im using nusoap to consume a webservice. What i get back is a massivley nested array. How can i pull out of the array
just the array i need?
when i print_r($array) it looks like this, i've clipped hundreds of lines of more arrays, the array at the bottom in red is what
i need. someone please help, what can i do for this? 😕

I've never used nusoap, but it looks like this is not a massively nested array, but rather a php object which some variables that contain arrays as their values. Post a few lines of your code to the nusoap call (the client-side code), and I think I'll be able to help you out.

Can't you just pull the details from the getinfoReturn array?

echo $soapclient["getinfoReturn"]["address"];

hey,

heres my nusoap code:

<?
require_once('nusoap.php'); 

$wsdl="http://localhost:8081/axis/services/webservice?wsdl";
$client=new soapclient($wsdl, 'wsdl');

$param=array(
'acctNum'=>'121212'
); 
$client->call('getinfo', $param);


print "<pre>";
print_r($client);

?>

Thanks for any suggestions 🙂

I fixed it!

i changed the line:

$client->call('getinfo', $param); 

to

$array=$client->call('getinfo', $param); 

that leaves me with an array that looks just like this:

Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[address] => 1234 Some St
[phone] => 123-456-7890
[city] => Jackson
[state] => MS
[emailAddress] => [e-mail]
[fname] => Jim
[lname] => Johnson

)

)

Just the data I wanted, but since its still a nested array I flattened it out and it's working perfectly now 🙂

Thanks for reading, hope this helps anyone else working with NuSOAP!!
