parsing youtube xml

[Jonathan Vanherpe (T & T NV)]

Hi list,

does anyone know why this code returns an empty array?

<?Lassoscript
var('youtube_id')='oHg5SJYRHA0';
var('youtube_xml')=xml(include_url('http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/'+$youtube_id));
'title: '+encode_HTML($youtube_xml->extract('/entry/title'));
?>

thanks,
Jonathan

found the answer myself in this ToTW:

I needed to use this:
'title:
'+encode_HTML($youtube_xml->extractOne('//*[name()="title"]/text()'));
