Web Services

This assignment was tons of fun, but tons of work. I got out to what I thought was a fast pace and hooked to Dr Liddle's service and returned the content back to another page in about an hour, the difficulty came when I attempted that process in wsdl mode. I helped a classmember out and ended up helping myself in the process. WSDL caching, different versions of PHP SOAP and other issues kept my service from working correctly till almost the deadline. Anyways I finished it up and actually enjoyed the process, and now that I'm moving a lot of my professional development to flash and more particularly flex and I still need to access my data through php web services will be a good technique to accomplish that task



In case I was supposed to blog my assignment instead of email as I did on 2/19 here are the contents of my assignment submission.

Dr. Liddle,

I finally finished my web services assignment. Here is a link to the wsdl http://dev.realwebstrategy.com/532/finalservice.php?wsdl

I also set up a thin client to do what your test client did and accept a cityzip get parameter http://dev.realwebstrategy.com/532/finalclient.php
getWeather($cityzip);
print "

";
print_r($return);
print "

";
?>

Thanks,
Michael Hancock
