Php Soap, Dump Result as XMl FILE?

I got a SOAP (normal php client) Result from my request I want to save the result as a XML file ? But how ?

   $result = $client->__soapCall('MYwebServices',array($params));

    $xml = simplexml_load_string($result);

    $fp = fopen("out.xml","w");
    fwrite($fp,$xml);
    fclose($fp);

If you want to get the XML returned by the web service, you should use SoapClient::__getLastResponse() (along with the trace option).

$client = new SoapClient(..., array('trace' => 1));

// Do your __soapCall here

$xml = $client->__getLastResponse();

// Work with the XML string here

$xml->asXML("out.xml");

Does the code above not do it, if not try:

$result = $client->__soapCall('MYwebServices',array($params));

    $xml = new DOMDocument();
$xml->load($result);
$xml->save("out.xml");

This might be broken if the return is not xml or the xml is improperly formatted, in which case try this:

$result = $client->__soapCall('MYwebServices',array($params));
    libxml_use_internal_errors(true);//load if improperly formatted
        $xml = new DOMDocument();
    if ($xml->load($result))
    {
        $xml->save("out.xml");
    }
    else {
        echo "The return data was not xml";
    }
