I am using PHP to access Solr and I wonder one thing.
Why should I use Solr PHP client when I can use:
$serializedResult = file_get_contents(
                      'http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=niklas&wt=phps');
to get the result in arrays and then print them out? I don't really get the difference. Are there any richer features with the PHP client?
