The .value of SOAPParameters in a valid SOAP response is deemed to be an invalid
pointer. The content does seem to be available via the .element property of the
same SOAPParameters.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Retrieve a nested array in soap response.
2. alert(response[0].value)

Actual Results:  
ns_error_invalid_pointer

Expected Results:  
given me the array contained in response[0]

see attached files.

Attachment: small js used to retrieve and walk soap response

getCustomers() calls invokeSOAP(). It's ok for pArray['name'] to be undefined
in getCustomers().

Captured from ethereal to see exactly what the SOAP server was feeding mozilla.

you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.
