Cannot call WCF service methods from php script

I have WCF service. When I try to access it from .NET page all works fine. However I cannot find a way to access it from php script.

Tried connecting from php, but it just hang. :(
$client = new SoapClient("wsdl", array(
'login' => "...",
'password' => "...",
'soap_version' => SOAP_1_2));
$functions = $client->__getFunctions ();
var_dump ($functions);
$parameters = array("ReqVal" => "nu?");
//$result = $client->__soapCall("GetStr", $parameters);
//$result = $client->GetStr($parameters);
Functions returns normaly.

Solution:
In order to use the php soapclient, you need to use basicHttpBinding, not wsHttpBinding.
For a very simple complete working example, see my Echo Service, which includes a php client.
This downside of this is that your service will not implement WS-Reliable Messaging or WS-Security. However, if you need those, there is an open source party module called the WSO2 Web Services Framework for PHP that supposedly handles wsHttpBinding.
