Problem stripping line feeds

[Robert Oschler]

Hello,

I am using the following function to try and strip both carraige returns and
line feeds, ASCII 13 and 10 respectively, from a string.  It doesn't seem to
be working:

x = filter(lambda c: c not in "\012\015", string.strip(x)) # octal version

I also tried:

x = filter(lambda c: c not in "\r\n", string.strip(x)) # escape char.
version

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
