SOAP Call with multiple occurences of an element

Hi,

I'm a little bit stuck trying to send a SOAP request that includes
multiple occurrences of an element.

For the sake of illustration, this is what the relevant portions of
the SOAP request should look like:

<SyncItems>
<UserContext>
<UserID>some id</UserID>
<AuthToken>some token</AuthToken>
</UserContext>
<allItems>
<anItem>
<name>Item One</name>
<type>Rocket parts</type>
</anItem>
<anItem>
<name>Item Two</name>
<type>Bear skins</type>
</anItem>
<allItems>
</SyncItems>


Here is some PHP code that illustrates how I would construct the
parameters for the call, except I'm not sure how I create the
"allItems" element:

<?php

$uc = array('UserID' => 'fred', 'AuthToken' => 'a48bf35-24525fea-3c43a25');
$i1 = array('name' => 'Item One', 'type' => 'Rocket parts');
$i2 = array('name' => 'Item Two', 'type' => 'Bear skins');
// how do I create $theitems so that the $params array created below
// will work?
$params = array('UserContext' => $uc, 'allItems' => $theitems);
$soapclient->SyncItems($params);

?>

I tried the obvious approach:

$item1 = array('anItem' => $i1);
$item2 = array('anItem' => $i2);
$theitems = array($item1, $item2);

But when I do that, the SOAP client call fails so badly I can't even
get trace information back.

I've been googling for others who may have solved this problem, but I
haven't seen anyone with answers.

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!

Nick
