SimpleXml not gives proper output

[paull]

I am using Soap for web service call and PHP for entire operation.When i send request i get the response as "341025COMPLETE". But when i select it for Source it prints the xml behind it.XMl is something like this : \[code\]"<testscreening xmlns="https://www.test.com/xml/services/PSI"><response><reportID>341025</reportID><backgroundreport></backgroundreport><status>COMPLETE</status></response></testscreening>"\[/code\]If i want its output that i can store into database how can i can achieve it ? Note : xmlns mentioned here is change as per the privacy.
