I'm trying to receive a PDF file that I request with the following code:


Code:

$parameters = "<afilename>Inv-8494.PDF</afilename>";
$result = $client->call('DownloadFile',$parameters,false,false,"Content-type: Base64/binary");


I get the error:
Quote:
Error: Response not of type text/xml


So how do I receive a PDF? And if I get it, how do I initiate an actual download?

Thanks for helping another NuSoap Newbie,

If I understand what you're trying to get, you'd a) read file into a variable and b) return it as a result.
See samples that return "Hello World".
Soap is an inter-server protocol. Using it you can pass data from one server to another server. With nusoap you can build both sides: soap client and soap server, both are running in PHP which is of course a server side langugage (in most cases Smile )
Neither browser nor its "download" feature are involved in regular soap based applications.
