Parsing a SOAP response with PHP in different ways [duplicate]

Answer 1

$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML( $yourxmlresponse );

$LoginResults = $doc->getElementsByTagName( "LoginResult" );
$LoginResult = $LoginResults->item(0)->nodeValue;

var_export( $LoginResult );

Answer 2

What's going wrong here is SimpleXMLs poor default namespace support. In order to fetch that node using an XPath expression, you'd need to register a prefix for the default namespace and use it in the query, even though the element isn't prefixed, for example:

foreach($xml->xpath('//soap:Body') as $header) {
    $header->registerXPathNamespace('default', 'http://Siddin.ServiceContracts/2006/09');
    var_export($header->xpath('//default:LoginResult'));
}

However, actually there's no need to use XPath for accessing this node, you can simply access it directly:

foreach($xml->xpath('//soap:Body') as $header) {
    var_export($header->LoginResult);
}
