Hi,

I'm not familar with SOAP at all and used the wizzard to generate the following PHP code:


*******************************************************************************
// Nusoap library 'nusoap.php' should be available through include_path directive

/*
Version of Nusopa we use:

$Id: nusoap.php,v 1.95 2006/02/02 15:52:34 snichol Exp $

NuSOAP - Web Services Toolkit for PHP

Copyright (c) 2002 NuSphere Corporation
*/

require_once('nusoap.php');

// set the URL or path to the WSDL document
$wsdl = "http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/api/checkVatPort?wsdl";

// instantiate the SOAP client object
$soap = new soapclient($wsdl,"wsdl");

// get the SOAP proxy object, which allows you to call the methods directly
$proxy = $soap->getProxy();

// set parameter parameters (checkVat)
$parameters = array(countryCode=>"NL",vatNumber=>12345);

// get the result, a native PHP type, such as an array or string
$result = $proxy->checkVat($parameters);


/*

*******************************************************************************


After running this, $Result returns the following array:

faultcode -> ns1:Client.NoSOAPAction"
faultstring-> no SOAPAction header!"
detail ->

This is not what we expected. Does someone had any idea what could be wrong.


We use PHP version 5.0.4 and Apache version 20020903


Scubaticus.

I'd recommend you to contact maintainers for http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/api/checkVatPort and ask them what they mean under SOAPAction header.
