php xml not a standard format.

The raw output is this..

full example: http://instant.simplyhired.com/a/jobs/xml-v1/l-06238/q-engineer/ws-100/si-0/fdb-21/sb-rd/mi-10

I can generally get the value of this stuff.. like if I wanted the "jt" line I can get ENGINEER, and the rest of the data.. what i am having trouble with is getting the attribute (i think thats the right term for this with XML). For example the "src" line it as an attribute "url=" I am trying to figure out how to get that value.. Below is a sample of the raw.. and below that is the code I am working with to load up the XML. I know theres simple_xml but in my case thats not an option so I am working on slightly custom work (as little as it is).

DOMDocument::GetElementsByTagName() returns a DOMNodeList, and each item is a DOMNode.  A DOMNode has a hasAttributes() method, and an attributes property of type DOMNamedNodeMap.  I would expect the attributes to be in there, and accessible using DOMNamedNodeMap::getNamedItem()

Yea, I finally got it I should have come bakc here and tagged it as solved. But thank you I realized I was forgetting a piece of the puzzle, and I was sleepy so it didnt make sense then
