                    </video>
                </videos>';



        $sxe = simplexml_load_string($xml);     

        foreach ($sxe->video as $videoChild) {
        echo $videoChild->id; 
        echo $videoChild->title;


        }

?>

it does not get the value of node, i need to get id, embed, thumb, link, title, without the CDATA tag. any help would be great.

the [CDATA] things aren't closed properly, simplexml_load_string() doesn't like that
