I have to read an xml with an dynamic structure bleow the "sdnEntry" Tag.
With a relative xpath I can read the value or attribute of the tag, but I also need to read the name of the tag.
What must I do be able to read the tag. The function getname allows me to read the first tag, but not in combination with the xpath.
I would be greatful for a hint.
The script below gives me the output: "value: IRAN BAM"
I am missing the output "element: lastName"
The xpath is my given input parameter:
$xpath='/ScanResults[1]/CofiResults[1]/Hit[1]/ListEntry[1]/sdnEntry[1]/*[2]/text()';
/**** msgexport.xml ***/
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ScanResults><CofiResults>
...
<Hit entityId="0">
<ListEntry group_id="11075">
<sdnEntry>
