Good Morning...

I hope this doesn't come across as too unintelligent, but I am baffled and maybe unnecessarilly

I am implementing a payment processor and merchant account services on my members site.

The processor has provided me with a host of API code for various functions and activities.

Problem is they are all revolve around XML tags using SOAP...

I have absolutely no knowledge or experience with either one.

I need to know how to do everything in PHP, because that is basically the only thing I know...

Is there a way to convert them or is that what is necessary?

I'm totally lost, so please forgive me for the vagueness of the questions.

Hope someone can help or refer me to someone I can hire to accomplish what I need to do.

thanks
Douglas

Read the basic function of SOAP:

Here is an example of using soap with php:

and this:

I think you need to spend sometime trying to understand how it works.

There's no shortcut for this.

Thank you for the response... I will do that reading hopefully soon, but I did find a shortcut to getting it implemented now...

I hired another programmer that is very familiar with the process and the scripting and it will be up by Friday (I hope).

Sometimes there just isn't enough time in the day to get to all the things that need to be completed single handedly.
