We can also use the contextnode parameter to shorten our expression:

<?php

$doc
= new DOMDocument;
$doc->preserveWhiteSpace = false;

$doc->load('book.xml');

$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);

$tbody = $doc->getElementsByTagName('tbody')->item(0);

// our query is relative to the tbody node
$query = 'row/entry[. = "en"]';

$entries = $xpath->query($query, $tbody);

foreach (
$entries as $entry) {
    echo
"Found {$entry->previousSibling->previousSibling->nodeValue}," .
         
" by {$entry->previousSibling->nodeValue}\n";
}
?>
