Parameters:
$location -- This parameter is either the 'proxy' for the soap server or a wsdl.
$uri -- If the 'location' parameter isn't a wsdl then you must supply the uri of the soap service.
Once you have connected to the remote server, by creating the object, you can call any of the exposed Methods as in the example below which calls the remote method, getQuote();
