The result is simply empty. I validated my istruction here: "http://www.activsoftware.com/xml/xpath/" &#1040;nd it get exactly what I want from the XML document. Reproduce code: --------------- $from = "USD"; $result = $xPath->query("/gesmes:Envelope/:Cube/:Cube/:Cube[@currency='" . strtoupper($from) . "']"); //$result is EMPTY! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37622&edit=1
