Note Submitter: marius kreis (email to mariuskreis . de) ---- If the namespace is subject to change you can write even more portable code if you extend brandon dot whitehead at orst dot edu's solution like this: $doc = domxml_open_mem($xml); $xpath = $doc->xpath_new_context(); $namespace = $xpath->xpath_eval('namespace-uri(//*)')->value; // returns the namespace uri xpath_register_ns($xpath, "pre", $namespace); // sets the prefix "pre" for the namespace $obj = $xpath->xpath_eval('//pre:Offer'); // finds all Offer tags $nodeset = $obj->nodeset; print_r($nodeset); This code will determine the namespace of the root element and set a prefix for XPath queries. Thus it doesn't matter if the namespace is changing in your XML (like some webservices do...)
