In this case, the error message is not missing arguments on your part,
but missing arguments on the programmers of the PHP script's part. That
would be a (monster!) function call in the internal PHP source of the
service, where they only had nineteen parameters when there should've
been twenty-one. Give the programmers the error message, complete with
line and file, and see what they can do about it.
Also: "The br tag from namespace is not expected." really just means
that the br tag /has/ no namespace.
