Well how do you want to extract it ?
What do you mean Simple XML ? the SimpleXML PHP module ?

In XPath attributes are selected using '@attributename', assuming of course that the attribute belongs to the current context node.

here is the XML file

<registry>
<value name="blahblah" type="REG_SZ" value="%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp" />
..............
.................
...........other keys

</registry>


Now i need to use XPath query to get this node ..when i perform this below query

//registry/value[@name='TEMP'and @value='%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp' and @type='REG_EXPAND_SZ']"

it gives me errors and no node it selects.

how can i select this node ???

Well the values for @name and @type doesn't match, which would explain why you are not getting any nodes, what error are you getting ?

Sigh, there is no way I can possibly help you when you only give me the slightest bit of information, and then go on to mess up the information that you do give me.

Please post an example that accurately reflect the problem, and once again please tell me what error you are getting.
