yea, mine is all array based. I pull the data from a FoxPro table via XML (and jump through several hoops.) Then I have a main loop that spins through the data (which is ordered) and
* creates a new PO if the PO number has changes (PO Object) * Create a PoLineItem for each line in the PO (POLineItemObject) * repeat. * PO's own POLineItems * All PO's are owned by the X12_850 object. Once everything is nicely sliced and diced into objects I call X12_850->generateX12(). This spits out all the necessary headers and then calls generateX12() on each PO. Each PO spits out all the necessary headers and then calls generateX12() on each POLine Item. Then it spits out the necessary trailers and bumps control back up the line. Once it's finished, I have a (honkin' big) string that represents the 850 document. Currently, I dump this out to a file for ftping but you could just as easily use CURL to call a SOAP process somewhere if your X12 partner had a brain. (mine does not, the company I was a consultant for in the medical insurance industry did not either) Anyhow, I'm happy to share what I know if you have questions.

Net Subject: RE: [PHP] x12 837 I've created an 850 and a base class x12. It's not terribly hard. I did not find much in the way of useful classes already built though. =C= * * Cal Evans * Stay plugged into your audience. * http://www.christianperformer.com * -----Original Message----- From: Edward Peloke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 3:39 PM To: Php-General@Lists. Php. Net Subject: [PHP] x12 837 Ok, I know this is a longshot but does anyone on this list work in the healthcare industry and have created an 837 with php? I am thinking of attempting to create one in php and didn't want to reinvent the wheel.
