xml-rpc problem

[eluser]Russ Back[/eluser]
Hi

I am not very experienced with CI but am experimenting with xml-rpc and magento commerce, which has an xml-rpc server.

I'm connecting fine but CI is tripping over the response that comes back from one of the requests and it seems this has been handled elsewhere:

How would I go about building this into my CI instance?

Here's some example repsonse XML (it's the

<nil/>

that is causing the issue):

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<methodResponse>
    <params>
        <param>
            <value>
                <struct>
                    <member>
                        <name>product_id</name>
                        <value>
                            <string>1</string>
                        </value>
                    </member>
                    <member>
                        <name>sku</name>
                        <value>
                            <string>32S50XPEW</string>
                        </value>
                    </member>
                    <member>
                        <name>set</name>
                        <value>
                            <string>4</string>
                        </value>
                    </member>
                    <member>
                        <name>special_price</name>
                        <value>
                            <nil/>
                        </value>
                    </member>
                </struct>
            </value>
        </param>
    </params>
</methodResponse>

I don't know Magento at all but a few months ago did some XML work and this part of the userguide proved extremely helpful http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...mlrpc.html

Sorry couldn't be more helpful but maybe that and the usual setup with Firebug and Live HTTP Headers extension for Firefox?
