Below is the XML response you get from the W3C Validation API:

I've tried the following code to obtain a list of error nodes, but something is wrong or missing. The length is always reported as zero, so no elements in the list.

$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML(file_get_contents('check.xml'));
  
$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);
$xpath->registerNamespace('m', 'http://www.w3.org/2005/10/markup-validator');
  
$nodelist = $xpath->query('error');
  
print_r($nodelist);
echo '<br/>Length: ' . $nodelist->length;

Hopefully someone can enlighten me.

Found my own answer:

$path = 'check.xml';
  $doc = new DOMDocument();
  $doc->load($path);
  
  $xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);
  $xpath->registerNamespace('m', 'http://www.w3.org/2005/10/markup-validator');
  
  $nodelist = $xpath->query('//m:markupvalidationresponse/m:errors/m:errorlist/m:error');
  
  print_r($nodelist);
  echo '<br/>Length: ' . $nodelist->length;
  
  foreach ($nodelist as $node) {
    echo '<br/>  ' . $node->nodeValue;
  }

Had no idea I needed to specify the full path.
