[SOLVED] PHP SOAP Woes with displayName

[bking93]

I can't seem to create a displayName from a php page using the SOAP api. It basically wants to close the <a> tag with <a n="displayName">, which the SOAP interpreter doesn't like.

I tried googling this problem, and someone else is obviously having the same issue (see below link), but I've not found a resolution.

PHP: SoapParam->__construct() - Manual

Help?

Thanks,

Very briefly, you need to do something like this ($id is the Zimbra account ID):

$var = "<id>$id</id>";
$var .= "<a n=\"displayName\">John Smith</a>";
$params = array( new SoapVar($var, XSD_ANYXML) );
$this->lastResult = $this->soapClient->__soapCall('ModifyAccountRequest', $arguments, $options ,$soapHeader);

This obviously snipped and abridged from a larger class, but hopefully that will get you on the path.
