    You probably want to try SoapVar instead of SoapParam if you want to specify attributes/namespace.

    If you want  to create a SOAP parameter like:

    <a n="something">DATA</a>

    You can try like this:

    array('a' => array('_' => 'DATA', 'n'=>'something'));

    This will generated xml like this:
    <a n="something">DATA</a>

    Make sure to always cast your parameters prior to creating a SoapParam.  Otherwise you will wind up with an incorrect xsi:type and possibly no value.

    $value = 0;
    $param0 = new SoapParam(
                    $value, $param0_name);

    will give you:

    <$param0_name xsi:type="xsd:null"></$param0_name>

    while:

    $value = 0;
    $param0 = new SoapParam(
                    (int)$value, $param0_name);

    <$param0_name xsi:type="xsd:int">0</$param0_name>

    which is probably what you want.

    You have to use SoapVar instead of SoapParam if you want it to do something fancy like using different opening and closing tags.  I ran into this using the SOAP API for Zimbra.

    You can also pass parameters (at least simple ones) to SOAP functions like this:

    <?php
      $return     = $client->someFunction(array('paramName' => 'paramValue'));
    ?>

    Is there anyway to create a SOAP parameter like:

    <a n="something">DATA</a>

    If I try to form a param using the following code the resulting request is:

    Code: SoapParam("DATA", "a n=\"something\"");
    Result: <a n="something">DATA</a n="something">

    This is giving me an error from the SOAP server because its expecting a properly formed closing tag without the encapsulated attribute.
