XPath Query in PHP: Get Value of Element in Document with Namespace

Asked by dbnewbie in PHP Scripting Language, Extensible Markup Language (XML)

Tags: XML, XPath, PHP

How do I get the text node associated with the element ReturnObject? In the attached snippet, I need the following string: 8b020dc7-7e3d-46d7-9f95-9f11d06dc475

All the examples I've seen seem to query simple XML documents. None show how to query something with a namespace. SimpleXMLElement seems to allow me to register namespaces, but I am not getting the results I think I should be getting. Can anyone help?

I do not want a RegEx solution. I need to execute this query via XPath.

             $MyXmlDocument = new SimpleXMLElement("<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance' xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'><soap:Header><ResponseHeader xmlns='https://secure.paymex.co.nz/payment/'><IsError>false</IsError><Message>Payment Success</Message><HasReturnObject>true</HasReturnObject><ReturnObjectDescription>Customer id</ReturnObjectDescription><ReturnObject xmlns:q1='http://microsoft.com/wsdl/types/' xsi:type='q1:guid'>8b020dc7-7e3d-46d7-9f95-9f11d06dc475</ReturnObject></ResponseHeader></soap:Header><soap:Body><RegisterSubscriptionResponse xmlns='https://secure.paymex.co.nz/payment/'><RegisterSubscriptionResult>0</RegisterSubscriptionResult></RegisterSubscriptionResponse></soap:Body></soap:Envelope>");
	$MyXmlDocument->registerXPathNamespace("soap", "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/");
	$MyXmlDocument->registerXPathNamespace("xsi", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance");
	$MyXmlDocument->registerXPathNamespace("xsd", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
	$MyXmlDocument->registerXPathNamespace("q1", "http://microsoft.com/wsdl/types/");
	
	$MyXpath = "//ReturnObject";
	$results = $MyXmlDocument->xpath($MyXpath);
