cast the value to a string when you pull it out if you want to use it that
way:
<?php
$xml =
<<<XML
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<request>
<customerID>3</customerID>
<appName>agenda</appName>
<ticketType>cticket_agenda_server</ticketType>
<ticketTypeID>1</ticketTypeID>
<platformID>1</platformID>
<ticketAction>addUsersToGroup</ticketAction>
</request>
XML;
$file = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
$ticketTypeAsSimpleXmlElement = $file->ticketType;
$ticketTypeAsString = (string)$file->ticketType;
$ticketTypeAnalyzer = new ReflectionObject($ticketTypeAsSimpleXmlElement);
echo (string)$ticketTypeAnalyzer . PHP_EOL;
var_dump($ticketTypeAsString);
?>
