Hi Jeff thanks for info, i am making progress.
I think the structmem variety. first script http://www.mds.me.uk/xml-whois.php does call and simply uses print_r(get_object_vars($result)); to display $result. second script http://www.mds.me.uk/xml-whois-1.php uses $Val = $result->value(); $domain = $Val->structmem("domain"); $error = $Val->structmem("error"); $found = $Val->structmem("found"); and again print_r(get_object_vars($error) etc. with a couple of added markers to break up text. now all i need to do is decode the 3 objects so i can grab the items like 'address' etc. i guess these are nested Array's, any pointers Mark ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Barr" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Obantec Support" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, December 19, 2003 2:13 PM Subject: Re: [phpxmlrpc] getting results from server ok but! > Obantec Support wrote: > > > i have put together a php script to access a whois server that uses xml. > > now i used their guides to send correct format of message but am lost as to > > how to use the response. > > You need to take the results apart using functions such as value, > scalarval, and structmem.
