I am posting information to a credit card processing server.  This is done
over HTTPS (with cURL) and seems to work fine.  I get the response that I
want from the server, which consists of an XML doc with about 20 tags and
their corresponding values.  I have gone through the mailing list and
manuals, yet I still can't seem to figure out how to get each piece of the
XML doc into their own variables.

Here is the code I am using:

$server = "https://www.creditcard.com";;
$path = "xmlhttps/xtrans.asp";
$ch = curl_init();
$requestedurl = "$server" . "/$path";
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "$requestedurl");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "$xmlstring");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,0);   

curl_close ($ch);

This replies (as it should) with an XML doc like this:

<RESPONSE><SERVICE>CC</SERVICE><SERVICE_TYPE>DEBIT</SERVICE_TYPE><SERVICE_SU
BTYPE>AUTH</SERVICE_SUBTYPE><SERVICE_FORMAT>1010</SERVICE_FORMAT><TERMINAL_I

What I need to do now is get certain parts of the return string.  How do I
assign the value in the <APPROVAL_CODE> tags to the variable $approvalcode?
I also need to get several other parts of the XML string assigned to
variables so that I can use them elsewhere.  I can't seem to figure out how
to do this.  I know that I need to change the "CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER" to
"1" to allow the information to be placed somewhere other than the screen
for processing, but after that I am not sure how to do this.  I have gone
through the mailing lists and through the docs online, but I'm having no
luck.

Any help is appreciated.
