I think you need to register the namespacing and access with XPath. Something like the following should get you going (I haven't the facility to test this).

$xml = simplexml_load_string($res, NULL, NULL, "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/");
$xml->registerXPathNamespace('soap-env', 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/');
$xml->registerXPathNamespace('eb', 'http://www.ebxml.org/namespaces/messageHeader');
$xml->registerXPathNamespace('wsse', 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2002/12/secext');

Then you can do something like:

foreach($xml->xpath('//eb:MessageHeader') as $header)
{
    var_export($header->xpath('//eb:CPAId')); // Should output 'something'.
}

You may not need to register the namespacing, thinking about it, as they are alredy present in the XML. Not sure on this though, would need to test.

Hope this helps.
