Hi, I need fresh eyes on this. 
my $soap = SOAP::Lite->new->proxy('https://wsnet.sendwordnow.com/Sessi
+onManagement/2010/05/PublicSessionManagementService.svc')
    ->ns('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/', 'soapenv')
    ->ns('http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/SWN.Notification.Pub
+licSessionManagement.Contracts.DataContracts', 'swn')
    ->ns('http://schemas.sendwordnow.com/ws/2010/05/PublicSessionManag
+er', 'pub')
;

=pod
my $req =
SOAP::Data->name( RequestOf_PublicLoginReqest => (
        SOAP::Data->name( OperationParameters => (
            SOAP::Data->name( Username => $USERNAME )->prefix('swn'),
            SOAP::Data->name( Password => $PASSWORD )->prefix('swn'),
            SOAP::Data->name( PublicServiceEntryPoint => 'AlertingServ
+ice' )->prefix('swn')
        ))->prefix('pub')
    )->prefix('pub')
);
=cut

my $user = SOAP::Data->name( Username => $USERNAME )->prefix('swn');
my $pass = SOAP::Data->name( Password => $PASSWORD )->prefix('swn');
my $entr = SOAP::Data->name( PublicServiceEntryPoint => 'AlertingServi
+ce')->prefix('swn');
my $oper = SOAP::Data->name( OperationParameters => ( $user, $pass, $e
+ntr ) )->prefix('pub');
my $reqm = SOAP::Data->name( RequestOf_PublicLoginRequest => $oper )->
+prefix('pub');

my $res = $soap->call( $reqm );

Note, the piece that is pod'd out effectively builds the same structure as the piece that isn't. Can anyone spot why I'm getting back a nil RequestOf_PublicLoginRequest or why the prefix isn't working?

Update: The prefix actually IS working. so nevermind that bit...
