trying to learn xml unmarshaling

[rob]

Hi. I am trying to unmarshal the xml file I get from my bank. It seems
that the unmarshal routine cannot deal w/ the nested html fields.

sample.qfx

OFXHEADER:100
DATA:OFXSGML
VERSION:102
SECURITY:NONE
ENCODING:USASCII
CHARSET:1252
COMPRESSION:NONE
OLDFILEUID:NONE
NEWFILEUID:NONE

<OFX>
<SIGNONMSGSRSV1>
<SONRS>
<STATUS>
<CODE>0
<SEVERITY>INFO
</STATUS>
<DTSERVER>20170602063954
<LANGUAGE>ENG
<FI>
<ORG>Citibank
<FID>2102
</FI>
<INTU.BID>2102
</SONRS>
</SIGNONMSGSRSV1>

type citixmlheadertype struct {
DTSERVER string `xml:"DTSERVER,OFX>SIGNONMSGSRSV1>SONRS" `
LANGUAGE string `xml:"LANGUAGE,OFX>SIGNONMSGSRSV1>SONRS" `
ORG string `xml:"ORG,OFX>SIGNONMSGSRSVR1>SONRS>FI" `
FID int `xml:"FID,OFX>SIGNONMSGSRSVR1>SONRS>FI" `
CURDEF string `xml:"CURDEF,OFX>BANKMSGSRSV1>STMTTRNRS"`
BANKID string `xml:"BANKID,OFX>BANKMSGSRSV1>STMTTRNRS>BANKACCTFROM"`
ACCTID string `xml:"ACCTID,OFX>BANKMSGSRSV1>STMTTRNRS>BANKACCTFROM"`
ACCTTYPE string
`xml:"ACCTTYPE,OFX>BANKMSGSRSV1>STMTTRNRS>BANKACCTFROM"`
DTSTART string `xml:"DTSTART,OFX>BANKMSGSRSV1>STMTTRNRS>BANKTRANLIST"`
DTEND string `xml:"DTEND,OFX>BANKMSGSRSV1>STMTTRNRS>BANKTRANLIST"`
}

var citiheader citixmlheadertype
e = xml.Unmarshal(filebyteslice, &citiheader) // this requires a []byte
if e != nil {
fmt.Println(" Unmarshalling the header error", e)
os.Exit(1)
}
fmt.Printf(" header %#v \n", citiheader)

I'm getting an xml syntax error that "element <SEVERITY> closed by </STATUS>

I guess I don't understand this yet.

Thanks,

Where is SEVERITY tag closed? The text you copied here is not an XML.

This looks like OFX  (Open Financial Exchange) which indeed is probably not XML.
