$http = new COM("Chilkat_9_5_0.Http");

$strXml = '<TransactionSetup xmlns=\'https://xyz.com\'><Credentials><AccountID>XXX</AccountID></Credentials></TransactionSetup>';

//  Choose a content-type.  Typical content types for XML POSTs are "application/xml" or "text/xml".
$http->SetRequestHeader('Content-Type','text/xml');

//  Maybe you need other headers?
$http->SetRequestHeader('Accept','text/xml');

// resp is a Chilkat_9_5_0.HttpResponse
$resp = $http->PostXml('https://www.somewebsite.com/',$strXml,'utf-8');
if ($http->LastMethodSuccess != 1) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
