Strange that no one ever has this problem

Hi, I am currently writing a program that sends a HTTP get to a server and along with the HTTP response, the server sends me a XML file. What I am trying to do is to save this file. However i encountered the problem whereby the whole response message is saved. Below is an example of what was saved in the file.

<XML>....<info></info>...</XML>System.Threading.ThreadABortException:Thread was being aborted. at System.Threading. Thread.Abort(object stateinfo) at System Web. HttpResponse.End()at......

The code i used is:

status1, reason1, read1 = post_multipart(host, selector, fields, files)
if status1 > 0:
		f = file(path_xml, 'wb')
		f.write(read1)
		f.close()
		appuifw.note(u"Query response received", "info")
		read_xml(path_xml)
def read_xml(path_xml):
	print path_xml
	doc = ET(file=path_xml)
	#find the "path" element by tag name
	body = doc.getroot().findall("info")[0]
	#print body
	download_path = body.text
	print download_path
	download_query(download_path)

Can anyone help me to either save the xml without the rest of the HTTP response msg or teach me how to retrieve the data for the element info. When I tried to real xml, I encountered error due to the unwanted information in the xml file.

I tried google and search but could get no answer. So pls someone help me out

This looks like invalid XML code. You need to fix XML generation at the server side or clean up response string manually (wrong way to go).
