Most like the elements are in a namespace, so your match expressions will not match. You can test that by changing "//target[parent::trans-unit[@id="xxx"]]" to //*:target[parent::*:trans-unit[@id="xxx"]] If the @id value will be unique within the document then you can do something like: //*[@id = 'xxx']/*:target Also, since you know the structure, you can replace "//", which is very inefficient, with "/*/*/*" (if I've counted the ancestor levels correctly).

This is my data: <xliff> <file> <header/> <body> (...) <trans-unit id="xxx> <source xml:lang="en">foo</source> <target xml:lang="sl" state="zzz">bar</target> </trans-unit> I have parsed the file and I am trying expressions $xliff->xpath('//target[parent::trans-unit[@id="xxx"]]') and $xliff->xpath('//trans-unit[@id="xxx"]/target') but they both give me the same result: array(1) { [0]=> object(SimpleXMLElement)#8 (1) { ["@attributes"]=> array(1) { ["state"]=> string(22) "zzz" } } } My expected result is "bar" What I doing wrong? I'm doing this in php 5.5.11 with libxml Version 2.9.1. Thank you so much.
