cast the value to a string  when you pull it out if you want to use it that
way:

<?php
$xml =
<<<XML
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<request>
 <customerID>3</customerID>
 <appName>agenda</appName>
 <ticketType>cticket_agenda_server</ticketType>
 <ticketTypeID>1</ticketTypeID>
 <platformID>1</platformID>
 <ticketAction>addUsersToGroup</ticketAction>
</request>
XML;

$file = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
$ticketTypeAsSimpleXmlElement = $file->ticketType;
$ticketTypeAsString = (string)$file->ticketType;
$ticketTypeAnalyzer = new ReflectionObject($ticketTypeAsSimpleXmlElement);

echo (string)$ticketTypeAnalyzer . PHP_EOL;
var_dump($ticketTypeAsString);
?>
