Francesco Sechi <francesco.se...@iet.unipi.it> added the comment: I try to explain better what is my opinion: - If you add the attribute by using setAttribute the newlines are kept and the toxml works well - If you add the attribute by using the parsestring, passing it an XML string the newlines are replaced
- Your patch works only if you act on a well-constructed (i.e.with newlines kept in internal data structures) xml.dom.minidom.Document object only, so... - If you try to execute your patched toxml method of a xml.dom.minidom.Document constructed using parsestring passing it a string with newline it does not work. So your patch works only in a specific case: you are trying to fix a problem in parsestring, acting on its actual parameter. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5752> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
