no i changed it to $resp = new simplexml_load_file($responseXml); if ($resp->Ack == "Success") { echo 'success';} but it doesn't i might add that the xml file is nested

first of all let me say that i have no idea about coding. when i went to school we used punch cards now here is the question in the code that i have $responseDoc = new DomDocument(); $responseDoc->loadXML($responseXml); but it is very hard for me to use DomDocument. it would be hundreds of lines (i had a program thet stopped working and i want to just make changes to that) i want to do a way that i can just have lines like $BestOfferCount = $Item->BestOfferDetails->BestOfferCount; i hope i am making myself clear. thanks for your help
