Viewing this thread I the WSDL just return the XML with the result. So  
you have to parse the result. IMO you should use simplexml to parse  
the xml string. It's very simple to use.

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($your_xml_string);

foreach ($xml->Project as $proj) {
   echo $proj->ID . "\n";
   echo $proj->Name . "\n";
   echo "-------------\n";
}
