[jdom-interest] SAXbuilder.build Behavior

[Brad Morgan]

I have noticed that the Document built by the SAXbuilder is different
depending on the presence or absence of a <!DOCTYPE... in the input XML
file.

I have tried both:
SAXBuilder builder = new SAXBuilder();
and
SAXBuilder builder = new SAXBuilder(false);

With the <!DOCTYPE I get no white space in the JDOM Document tree and
without the <!DOCTYPE I get the white space in the tree.

After making my changes to the JDOM tree in memory, I now want to use
XMLOutputter to create a new document but of course the appropriate
parameters to use are dependant on which flavor of input I received.

Is this the expected behavior?  If so, what is the proper/best way to
determine how to call XMLOutputter?

Thanks for your prompt replies.
