    Hi! I've a xml file and I want to extract the value of a field.
    I know make it if the tags don't have the namespace.
    A extract of the file is:

    Example xml
    ----------------------------------------------------
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <rdf:RDF
    xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
    xmlns:rdfs="http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#"
    xmlns:eek:wl="http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#"
    >
    <owl:Ontology rdf:about=""/>
    <owl:Class rdf:ID="Insectivora">
    <rdfs:comment rdf:datatype="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string"
    >Insectivora</rdfs:comment>
    </owl:Class>
    </rdf:RDF>
    ----------------------------------------------------

    I can select the element rdf:ID, but I cant't show it.

    Example code:
    ----------------------------------------------------
    $xml = simplexml_load_file('xml_little.owl');
    $res2 = $xml->xpath("/rdf:RDF/owl:Class/@rdf:ID");
    foreach ($res2 as $key => $value)
    {
    echo "<p> -".$key." ".$value."</p>";
    }
    ----------------------------------------------------
    The elements number of $res2(array) is ok, but $value don't display anything.

    Thanks in advance, Juan

    Never used simplexml_load_file before, nor do I know the code of it.

    Peace,
