RE: Malformed XML

Michael,

Open this XML up with Internet Explorer with an XML extension. It will give warnings on what it can't parse.

<Physical Address should be one word.
<Physical_Address should be moved after the end of <Consumer_Information.
<Consumer_Information should end with > and not />

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Blah_ABC_Response>
<Blah_ABC_Decision_Info>
<Consumer_Information
First_Name="JOHN"
Last_Name="ISNER"
Birth_Date="1985-01-01"
Home_Telephone_Number="5869831111"
Requestor_Transaction_Amount="03500">
<Physical_Address
Address_Line_1="1 TENNIS DR "
Address_Line_2=""
Address_City="WARREN"
Address_State_Code="MI"
Address_Postal_Code="49802"/>

Anyone see what's wrong with this XML? I have to be able to intelligently
tell the provider.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Blah_ABC_Response>
<Blah_ABC_Decision_Info>
<Consumer_Information
First_Name="JOHN"
Last_Name="ISNER"
<Physical Address
Address_Line_1="1 TENNIS DR "
Address_Line_2=""
Address_City="WARREN"
Address_State_Code="MI"
Address_Postal_Code="49802"/>
Birth_Date="1985-01-01"
Home_Telephone_Number="5869831111"
Requestor_Transaction_Amount="03500"/>
</Consumer_Information>
</Blah_ABC_Decision_Info>
</Blah_ABC_Response>

Is it that Address_Postal_Code and Requestor_Transaction_Amount both have
ending brackets? I removed the one after Address_Postal_Code, but I received
the same error in the same place.

Thanks!
