Hi I cannot seem to do the following when the variable is not equal to the tag name

<elements id='1'>
    <element id='10'>
       <value>blah</value>
   </element>
    <element id='11'>
       <value>blah</value>
   </element>
    <element id='12'>
       <value>blah</value>
   </element>
    <element id='13'>
       <value>blah</value>
   </element>
    <element id='14'>
       <value>blah</value>
   </element>
</element>

type Elements struct {
   XMLName   xml.Name `xml:"elements"`
   Id                int            `xml:"id,attr"`
   Elements     []Element
}

type Element struct {
   XMLName   xml.Name `xml:"element"`
   Id                int            `xml:"id,attr"`
   Value          string        `xml:"value"`
}

I think you want to name this Element or add `xml:"element"`

yep, but it does not work, I tried with `xml:"element"` defined in Elements struct, with XMLName define in Element struct and with both, and none of them.

I cannot get a struct Elements.Elements where .Elements is a slice of <element>.

I have not tried putting (in Elements.Element struct) `xml:elements>element"`

Any samples known to work?
