UserNamePasswordValidator with basicHttpbinding and ssl

Question

is it possible to have BasicHttpBinding with an Custom UserNamePasswordValidator and have transport security?

• I have tried with wsHttpBinding but when I cant make an php soap client explained in this link. Using SOAP wsHttpBinding from PHP
• and in this guide they talk as if custom UserNamePasswordValidator wont get called in basicHttpBinding. http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/36396/Difference-between-BasicHttpBinding-and-WsHttpBind

I just get InvalidSecurity from php soap and if I trace the error Security processor was unable to find a security header in the message. This might be because the message is an unsecured fault or because there is a binding mismatch between the communicating parties. This can occur if the service is configured for security and the client is not using security. Security processor was unable to find a security header in the message.

currently im using basicHttpBinding with TransportWithMessageCredential with clientCredentialType="UserName" />

i'll include the config if its necessary but I just need to know if it can be done or else I guess I have to call the validate method inside every [OperationContract] ? havent tested this yet but seen others talk about it.

ok I dont know how it works but apperently I did right all along. what made it to work was that in my php code when i specify username and password that the parameters was named.

$soapClient = new SoapClient("https://wsdl"), array('login' => "user123", 
                                                    'password' => "pass123"));

and the same in my custom username password validator. i had userName and Password before on both places and that didnt work. So i dont know the difference but it works now... maybe someone else can answer why it works this way.
