Creating Web Service Using PHP Within 10 Minutes

/**
* For creating serializable abstractions of native PHP types.  This class
* allows element name/namespace, XSD type, and XML attributes to be
* associated with a value.  This is extremely useful when WSDL is not
* used, but is also useful when WSDL is used with polymorphic types, including
* xsd:anyType and user-defined types.
