[jdom-interest] XMLOutputter indent problems

[Abe Mishler]

This is exactly the problem I was having. The following seems to be the 
generally accepted fix to prevent "bloating" in 9:

In your code,

XMLOutputter outputter = new XMLOutputter("  ", true, "ISO-8859-1");
outputter.setTrimAllWhite(true);

 - or -

XMLOutputter outputter = new XMLOutputter();
outputter.setEncoding("ISO-8859-1");
outputter.setIndent("  ");
outputter.setNewlines(true);
outputter.setTrimAllWhite(true);

In both examples, the last line is the key.

Hope this helps,
