- • Formerly known as Simple Object Access Protocol.
- • Uses XML, but you never need to touch it.
- • Which is good, because SOAP is messy to look at.
- • You just call functions and manipulate arrays. (Unless you want to.)
- • A few PHP implementations: PEAR::SOAP, PHP-SOAP, NuSOAP
- • (Dirty little secret: Nobody uses SOAP.)
