   I managed to make mine work, although I haven’t a clue why it makes it work. Basically, in this section:

   
if (CANUSEXMLRPC == 1) {

   $xmlrpcI4="i4";
$xmlrpcInt="int";
$xmlrpcBoolean="boolean";
$xmlrpcDouble="double";
$xmlrpcString="string";
$xmlrpcDateTime="dateTime.iso8601";
$xmlrpcBase64="base64";
$xmlrpcArray="array";
$xmlrpcStruct="struct";


   I added this line before the variable assignments:

   global $xmlrpcI4, $xmlrpcInt, $xmlrpcBoolean, $xmlrpcDouble, $xmlrpcString, $xmlrpcDateTime, $xmlrpcBase64, $xmlrpcArray, $xmlrpcStruct;

   The variables should be global in scope by default though…not a clue why this worked. Basically, after a bunch of echo statements, I figured out that $xmlrpcString was losing its defintion. So in the addScalar function, it went, oops, not found in $xmlrpcTypes, so it’s not a scalar type!
   And the headers error was basically, stuff was already outputted before, so that must have obviously have been headers…

   I still don’t know why what I did made it work though.

   That is exactly the bug. Glad it worked for you.

   THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! =)

   I was getting so annoyed! Now if only I can get that usertag hack to work, I think I might be happy!

   Thanks again!

   A zipped version of the file would be nice. I can’t seem to download a properly formatted .phps using wget, curl, links or lynx.
