You may be able to use the same URL in a POST request. PHP5's SOAP docs are here:<br />

Hi!<br />
I built a web service in php, everything is fine. Now I have got to think about authentication: the application that is calling my web service have got to send me a login/password in some way... what can I do? I don't want to simply send and read a post parameter but to use soap header. Can you help?<br />
<br />
Thank you so much for reading.<br />
<br />
P.S: I am using nuSoap.<br />

Authentication in SOAP/PHP

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.
