Whoops, yeah I had attached the wrong one *blush*. I had also fixed the dates. Lets try again...

That's a big improvement - the pooling of the requests has halved the time taken to request the main page for me. Thanks for the help Rich.

Just a minor thing for anyone else who has a try, you'll want to change line 10 from:

require_once('file:///C|/work/cinoan/ebay/nusoap.php');

to

require_once('nusoap.php');

(still getting silly 'Request unknown' errors on my nokia though for the subpages - think I might need a new phone or something... )

hmm, not my day today - and don't even ask why I started working in a folder called ebay, I haven't got a clue either!

Lol... not sure why we're doing this (I've got an essay to write...) but I've added a compact / full view so I can scroll down all campaigns on my small phone screen quickly (without all the CTR/CPC rubbish cluttering it up).

The way you've added all requests for the campaigns into a single quick array means that a daily spend breakdown for, say, the last 7 days would be easy to make, and wouldn't require many calls either. Next button to add

added: The best thing would be the start screen showing the last 7 days, broken down daily (today at the top). Click on a day, it takes you to compact view of campaigns (or full view) for that day, then click on campaign --> full stats. Perfect

Rich,

Have you ever had the problem of the script temporarily producing the following error:

Active Campaigns: 2005-03-19 (at 10:03:00)

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/public_html/adwords/index-html.php on line 48

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/public_html/adwords/index-html.php on line 57
TOTAL: £0.00

Bit odd, as this happens when the api still appears to be operational, but it fixes itself several hours later - v odd?

I haven't been using the script myself but it looks like the getAllAdWordsCampaigns and getCampaignStats aren't returning any data for some reason. If you add the following before the two foreach lines you might get a better indication of the issue.

if ($campaignclient->fault) { 
    echo "<p>FAULT:  {$client->fault}</p>"; 
    echo "<p>Code: {$client->faultcode}</p>"; 
    echo "<p>String: {$client->faultstring}</p>";
    echo "<p>Detail: {$client->faultdetail}</p>";
}

Cheers Rich!
