Structural is a White Box Testing.  Functionality is a Black Box Testing.

Mirror Image for Structural Testing is Functional Testing - Without knowing the Internal Architecture is called Functional Testing.

Structural is mainly Focused on Internal Code where as funtionality is Verified with respect to SRS.
