Using XPath with SimpleXML in PHP

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement(getpage('http://api.themoviedb.org/2.1/Genres.getList/en/xml/APIKEY'));
$genres = $xml->xpath('/opensearchdescription/genres/genre');
foreach($genres as $genre)
{
    echo $genre->id;
}

I'm not sure why it isn't working :( (yes APIKEY is replaced in my code)

The XML is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns:opensearch="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/">
  <opensearch:Query searchTerms=""/>

XML is case sensitive - OpenSearchDescription is not the same as opensearchdescription.

Try this:

$genres = $xml->xpath('/OpenSearchDescription/genres/genre');
