Thanks.

I'm pretty familiar with XMLSERVICE since I wrote a .Net wrapper around it.

I just hadn't played with the PHP wrappers since I haven't done much PHP to date.

From my testing it looks like:

-XML toolkit works natively on IBM i

- XML Toolkit will work with PHP on Windows via the ODBC driver or using the HTTP CGI program XMLCGI.PGM.

-I'm supposing that XML toolkit will then work with PHP on Linux or any other platform using the HTTP CGI program as well. Since it's communicating via the HTTP layer there appear to be no additional driver requirements. I'll test that theory.

I'm writing a couple of PHP technical sessions so I'll share and expand on what I learned from Alan's presentations and during my own testing as well.

subject: Re: [WEB400] Ibm i Xml toolkit for Php

The PHP toolkit is based on XMLSERVICE which can be used from any platform. The basic answers you need are on this page I think http://yips.idevcloud.com/wiki/index.php/XMLService/XMLService - and based on my experience - I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work no matter what platform you run on.

There are two interfaces available - REST-type web service and stored procedure. If I remember correctly the web service just calls the stored procedure under the covers.
