SOAP is great, but has its limitations, and it a pain to setup. I think I'll stray away from it from now on. The great part is, once setup, and say you're using PHP, it's the same as including any library. Only difference is, instead of:

Code:
require_once(SOME_LIBRARY);
You use:

Code:
$client = new SOAPClient(SOME_WSDL);
That's it though. Then you just call functions as you normally would. $client->some_func($vars); type of thing, and you don't have to worry about the data getting sent to the other server. It all happens behind the scenes.

Still overly complex though, and a pain though. I'll stay away from it, me thinks.
