Fixing XML API

A while back, I hired a programmer through freelancer (siddhu1986) to help with a program to parse an API soap xml file (Retrieving data from an xml/soap api - [url removed, login to view]).

Although there were some "communication problems" (what he wanted vs what I wanted), I did feel he was trying. Having almost completed the project, I was detained doing other things and could not devote my attention to the project. Feeling guilty about the delays, I authorized payment and gave a good review with the understanding that we would finish the project later - My mistake. After making payment, all efforts stopped and he became very uncooperative until I just gave up in frustration. The project has sat since that time.

I am now ready to resume this project.

So, where are we and what problems do I have and what I need done:

The API request and response does work, however:

1. The xml file is standalone and cannot have dynamic content or goes into error. I NEED to be able to input some variables like:

$label or even

as written, no variable inputs can be inserted in the xml

2. The output (response) is raw and cannot be translated into a variable. I need to output the response as a variable, e.g:

$carrier1 = ['GetRatingEngineQuoteResult']['QuoteCarrierOptions']['0']['CarrierName']

From there, I should be able to handle the rest.

Like the form should NOT be generated from the xml as MOST are stagnant vales and not variables that should appear on the form.

I will unlikely pay more than $50
