Unfortunately we're not running PHP 5 on all processes and the app has 
to be portable so we'll have to take a backwards approach and use PHP 4 
solutions instead.  I will look up info on XML-RPC as I am vaguely 
familiar with this process, SOAP I know absolutely nothing about 
whatsoever except that it gets you squeaky clean.
