Your code looks fine, apart from the fact that you are trying to print an
array.  Might be better to do:

echo "<br>This is it  attributes";
print_r($xpath->getAttributes("$mypath/$nodename"));

If it really does'nt seem like it is doing what  you think it should, could
you attach a short xml file and php file, and tell us what you expect the
output to be and what the output is?  That way we can quickly reproduce your
issue and analyse/fix it.

Also it would be helpful if you could tell us what version of the class you
are using (or what CVS version if you have been  using a version straight
from CVS).

Thanks
