Re: [SOAP] Help with Soap Client

Tom,

You would use the same kind of code you would use to iterate over any 
php object.  I suppose if you were looking to draw a map you could write 
a callback that gets called for particularly named elements.  The code 
that follows is off the top of my head and untested, but it might give 
you an idea.

function doRealWork(item) {
     // whatever
}

function recurse($data, $find, $callback) {
     $type = gettype($data);
     if (( $type == "array" ) || ( $type == "object" )) {
         foreach ( $type as $key => $val ) {
             if ( $key == $find ) $callback($val);
             elseif ( ! is_scalar($val ) recurse($val, $find, $callback);
         }
     }
}

recurse($stresults, "elementToFind", "doRealWork");
