Building XML Web Services with PHP NuSOAP
Web Services are the today's fastest growing approach to interprocess communication. Web services are used to provide tracking information for packages, pricing information for products, Google search capabilities, dictionary lookup, and many other resources.
The SOAP protocol has become the standard way to access external information in web applications. NuSphere worked in conjunction with Dietrich Ayala to develop NuSOAP, the PHP SOAP4X library, which has been used in thousands of PHP applications in its first year of availability.
The NuSphere PhpED NuSOAP wizard makes it easy for our customers to access a variety of web services. In this article, you will find the definition of Web Services, their advantages and the basic architecture.
