Hi,
You're right for my post code : I extract it from a more complicated
context.
However, the solution you propose produce the line not a blank line.
Finally, I've found a good solution by using :
from xml.dom.ext import PrettyPrint
from xml.dom.ext.reader.Sax2 import FromXmlStream
dom = FromXmlStream("my_file")
testRemoving(dom)
PrettyPrint(dom)
def testRemoving(self,dom) :
for node1 in dom.childNodes:
if node1.nodeType == node1.ELEMENT_NODE:
for node in node1.childNodes:
if node.nodeValue == "xxx_toremove_xxx":
dom.removeChild(node1)
testRemoving(node1)
