I have fought with SOAP in PHP 5, and PHP 4, and I think maybe even PHP 3 (shudder). I've used nuSoap, and I think I used PEAR::SOAP once. I also tried to use some other SOAP package once, I think, that failed miserably. My recommendations: #1 If you can move to PHP 5 and use the built-in SOAP there, do it ASAP. It's like night and day. #2 If you are stuck in PHP 4, try the PEAR::SOAP. I believe it will handle the whatsit tag namespace-y thingie you are getting with that <tag:0> business better than nuSoap, as I recall. I won't swear to it in court, though, as I only use PEAR::SOAP once before I moved to PHP 5 and my SOAP life was way way way cleaner. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
