Problem with newlines when I use toprettyxml()

by

I found another great solution :

f = open(filename, 'w')
dom_string = dom1.toprettyxml(encoding='UTF-8')
dom_string = os.linesep.join([s for s in dom_string.splitlines() if s.strip()])
f.write(dom_string)
f.close()

Above solution basically removes the unwanted newlines from the dom_string which are generated by toprettyxml().
