If you need to redirect page and pass $_POST variable (or any other variable) you should use following code:

 

<?php
  header("HTTP/1.0 307 Temporary redirect");
  header("Location: http://localhost/test.php");
?>

Here is recursive way:

<?php
	function rec_listFiles( $from = '.')
	{
		if(! is_dir($from))
		return false;

		$files = array();
		if( $dh = opendir($from))
		{
			while( false !== ($file = readdir($dh)))
			{
				// Skip '.' and '..'
				if( $file == '.' || $file == '..')
				continue;
				$path = $from . '/' . $file;
				if( is_dir($path) )
				$files += rec_listFiles($path);
				else
				$files[] = $path;
			}
			closedir($dh);
		}
		return $files;
	}
?>

<?php
	function listFiles( $from = '.')
	{
		if(! is_dir($from))
		return false;
		$files = array();
		$dirs = array( $from);
		while( NULL !== ($dir = array_pop( $dirs)))
		{
			if( $dh = opendir($dir))
			{
				while( false !== ($file = readdir($dh)))
				{
					if( $file == '.' || $file == '..')
					continue;
					$path = $dir . '/' . $file;
					if( is_dir($path))
					$dirs[] = $path;
					else
					$files[] = $path;
				}
				closedir($dh);
			}
		}

		return $files;
	}
?>

<?php
	function rec_listFiles( $fileName, $from = '.', &$pathOut)
	{
		if ($pathOut != '')
			return true;
		else
		{

			if(! is_dir($from))
				return false;

			if( $dh = opendir($from))
			{
				while( false !== ($file = readdir($dh)))
				{
					// Skip '.' and '..'
					if( $file == '.' || $file == '..')
						continue;
					$path = $from . '/' . $file;
					if( is_dir($path) )
					{
						//echo $path.'<p/>';
						rec_listFiles($fileName, $path, $pathOut);
					}
					else
					{
						if ($fileName == $file)
						{
							$pathOut = $path;
						}
					}
				}
			closedir($dh);
			}
			if ($pathOut == '')
				return false;
			else
				return true;
		}
	}

	$pom = '';
	if (rec_listFiles('mod_newsflash.php', '.', $pom))
	echo $pom;
	else
	echo 'Could not find file.';
?>

Here are my expirience in working with NuSoap (SOAP) in PHP.

Creating simple SOAP function is simple,  so there is no need to explain.

Problems are coming when you need a complex types, like array, and UTF-8 encoding.

Here is an example of adding complex type to your SOAP server:

$server->wsdl->addComplexType(
     'Chapter',     //name
     'complexType',  //typeClass (complexType|simpleType|attribut) 
     'struct',  //phpType: currently supported are array and struct (php assoc array)
     'all',  //compositor (all|sequence|choice)
     '',  //restrictionBase namespace:name (http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/:Array)
     array(  //elements = array ( name = array(name=>”,type=>”) )
         'title' => array('name'=>'title','type'=>'xsd:string'),
         'page' => array('name'=>'page','type'=>'xsd:int')
     ) );
   $server->wsdl->addComplexType(
     'ChapterArray',
     'complexType',
     'array',
     '',
     'SOAP-ENC:Array',
     array(),
     array(
         array('ref'=>'SOAP-ENC:arrayType','wsdl:arrayType'=>'tns:Chapter[]')
     ),
     'tns:Chapter' );

   $server->wsdl->addComplexType(
     'Book',
     'complexType',
     'struct',
     'all',
     '',
     array(
         'author' => array('name'=>'author','type'=>'xsd:string'),
         'title' => array('name'=>'title','type'=>'xsd:string'),
         'numpages' => array('name'=>'numpages','type'=>'xsd:int'),
         'toc' => array('name'=>'toc','type'=>'tns:ChapterArray')
     ) ); 

$server->register(
    'getBook',  // method name
    array('title'=>'xsd:string'),  // input parameters    
    array('return'=>'tns:Book'), // output parameters
     $NAMESPACE); // namespace

function getBook($title) {
     // Create TOC
     $toc = array();
     $toc[] = array('title' => 'Chapter One', 'page' => 1);
     $toc[] = array('title' => 'Chapter Two', 'page' => 30);
  
     // Create book
     $book = array(
                 'author' => "Jack London",
                 'title' => $title,
                 'numpages' => 42,
                 'toc' => $toc);
  
     return $book;
}

Taken from here.

Comments are taken from here.

Client example:

<?php
  require_once('nusoap.php');

  $namep = "Title";
  $param = array('String_1' => $namep);

  $endpoint = "http://localhost/server.php";

  $mynamespace = "http://localhost/server.php";
  $client = new soapclient($endpoint);

  $client->decodeUTF8 = true;
  $response = $client->call('getBook', $param, $mynamespace);
  print_r ($response['author']);
  echo '<p/>'.$client->response;
?>
 

Now, if you want to use utf - 8, you will have to in nusoap.php on line 152, instead of:

var $soap_defencoding = 'ISO-8859-1';

Add or uncomment:

var $soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';

Also, on server side I added:

$server->decode_utf8  =  true; 

If you are using MySQL and data are encoded in Windows-1252 (like mine) then you will need to put:

mysql_query('set names utf8');

In  your server side.

I hope that is all.
