Hey Mike,

I'm having some problems with the new(er) API. I'm using the API with the copyright of 2007. I'm trying to make a Web-to-contact form. I'm getting stuck with trying to update a contact's info. Here's my code:

PHP Code:

    ...
    require_once ('soapclient/SforcePartnerClient.php');
    
    $mySforceConnection = new SforcePartnerClient();
    $mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection("partner.wsdl");
    $mylogin = $mySforceConnection->login($username, $final_password);

    $query = "Select Id, Email From Contact WHERE Email = '".$_POST['Email']."'";
    $queryResult = $mySforceConnection->query($query);
    $records = $queryResult->records;    

    //Get rig of NULL values
    foreach($_POST as $field => $value)
        if(strlen(trim($value)) == 0)
            unset($_POST[$field]);

    if(sizeof($records) > 0)
    {
        foreach ($records as $record) 
        {
            $sObject = new SObject($record);
            $contactEmail = $sObject->fields->Email;
            $contactID = $sObject->Id;
        }

        $sObject = new sObject();
        $sObject->type = 'Contact';        
        $sObject->Id = $contactID;

        $sObject->field = $_POST;
        
        //Output for debugging
        print_r($sObject);
        print_r($mySforceConnection->update(array($sObject)));
    } 


Here is the output:

SObject Object ( [type] => Contact [fields] => [Id] => 0025000000pcAdfWEL [field] => Array ( [FirstName] => John [LastName] => Smith [email] => john.smith@something.net [School_Name__c] => LSU [title] => Web Developer [MailingStreet] => 465 12th Ave. N [MailingCity] => Somewhere [MailingState] => LA [MailingPostalCode] => 98754 [Mail_Opt_In__c] => true [notes__c] => This is a test. ) ) stdClass Object ( [id] => 0025000000pcAdfWEL [success] => 1 )

The problem is that the record in salesforce does not update. Any ideas what I'm missing?

Figured it out...

PHP Code:

    ...
    require_once ('soapclient/SforcePartnerClient.php');
    
    $mySforceConnection = new SforcePartnerClient();
    $mySoapClient = $mySforceConnection->createConnection("partner.wsdl");
    $mylogin = $mySforceConnection->login($username, $final_password);

    $query = "Select Id, Email From Contact WHERE Email = '".$_POST['Email']."'";
    $queryResult = $mySforceConnection->query($query);
    $records = $queryResult->records;    

    //Get rig of NULL values
    foreach($_POST as $field => $value)
        if(strlen(trim($value)) == 0)
            unset($_POST[$field]);

    if(sizeof($records) > 0)
    {
        foreach ($records as $record) 
        {
            $sObjects = new SObject($record);
            $contactEmail = $sObjects->fields->Email;
            $contactID = $sObjects->Id;
        }
        unset($sObjects);

        $_POST['Id'] = $contactID;
        $sObject = new SObject();
        $sObject->fields = $_POST;
        $sObject->type = 'Contact';
        
        print_r($sObject);
        print_r($mySforceConnection->update(array ($sObject)));        

    } 


Sorry I could not get here fast enough lol, Great job figuring it out man!
