Python - Element Tree is removing the XML declaration

[Violvetoild]

I'm writing some XML with element tree. I'm giving the code an empty template file that starts with the XML declaration:\[code\]<?xml version= "1.0"?>\[/code\] when ET has finished making its changes and writes the completed XML its stripping out the declarion and starting with the root tag. How can I stop this? Write call:\[code\]ET.ElementTree(root).write(noteFile)\[/code\]
