JSoup adding extra <br /> 's

JSoup seems to be adding extra br tags to my output as shown below. Is there a way to stop this from happening ?

JUnit Test :

@Test
public void testJsoup () throws MLException {
    String htmlBody = "<body> <div> <br class='calibre1'></br> <br class='calibre1'></br></div> </body>"; 
    Document doc = Jsoup.parse(htmlBody);
    htmlBody = doc.select("body").first().toString();
    System.out.println(htmlBody);
}

Console Output :

<body> 
 <div> 
   <br class="calibre1" />
   <br /> 
   <br class="calibre1" />
   <br />
 </div> 
</body>

Regards, Danny

I don't see any extra <br />-Tags here ... do you mean line feed instead?
If yes, have a look here: jsoup line feed

What you can do is turning prettyPrint off: 

final String html = "<body> <div> <br class='calibre1'></br> <br class='calibre1'></br></div> </body>";

Document doc = Jsoup.parse(html);

// This line will keep your Html in one line
doc.outputSettings().prettyPrint(false);

System.out.println(doc.body());

Output:

<body> <div> <br class="calibre1" /><br /> <br class="calibre1" /><br /></div> </body>
