For the part about the default namespace, read fireeyedboy's answer. As mentionned, you need to register a namespace if you want to use XPath on nodes that are in the default namespace.

However, if you don't use xpath(), SimpleXML has its own magic that selects the default namespace automagically.

$xmlSource = "         myApp  ";

$Document = new SimpleXMLElement($xmlSource);

foreach ($Document->iTunes as $iTunes)
{
    echo $iTunes, PHP_EOL;
}
