Dear All,

Anybody please tell me, How to read XML in PHP. Actually I have used web service in my PHP client. My web service was written in C# and ASP.Net which returning me data in the from of XML. Now, Since I am very much new to PHP, I don't know how to get that data and how I can show it in form of table.

Here I want to check whether my service is platform independent or not, and that's why I am trying to consume it in PHP.

Here I am giving my web service code for your reference.

C#

[WebMethod(Description = "web service to get Data in Xmlformat")]
   public System.Xml.XmlElement getData()
   {
       string conn = WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["mycon"].ConnectionString;
           OleDbConnection cn = new OleDbConnection(conn);


               cn.Open();
               OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]", cn);
               OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter();
               da.SelectCommand = cmd;

               DataSet ds = new DataSet();
               da.Fill(ds, "test");

               //DataTable dt = ds.Tables[0];

               //System.Xml.XmlDocument xd = new System.Xml.XmlDocument(ds);
               System.Xml.XmlDataDocument xdd = new System.Xml.XmlDataDocument(ds);

               System.Xml.XmlElement docEle = xdd.DocumentElement;

               return docEle;



   }

I want to consume the service using nusoap client. How to do it?

Thanks in Advance..

PHP

<?php <br mode="hold" /?>
require_once('../lib/nusoap.php');

$wsdl = "http://www.abc.com/excelserver/xmlserver.asmx?wsdl";

$mynamespace = "http://www.abc.com/excelserver/";

$s = new nusoap_client($wsdl,true);

//$xml = new xmlschema($wsdl);

/*$theVarible = array('i'=>'2');*/

$result = $s->call('getData');

echo "<h1> "; print_r($result); print "</h1>";

?>

but it returns me in the form of string. I want to show it in form of xmlElement only. :P
