    presumes only one “entry” tag … 

    require "rexml/document"
include REXML
xml=<<EOD
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><entry xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom' xmlns:gwo='http://schemas.google.com/analytics/websiteoptimizer/2009' xmlns:app='http://www.w3.org/2007/app' xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' gd:etag='W/&quot;DUYGRX85fCp7I2A9WxFWEkQ.&quot;'><id>https://www.google.com/analytics/feeds/websiteoptimizer/experiments/1025910</id></entry>
EOD
doc = Document.new xml
doc.elements["entry"].attributes["gd:etag"]
