javascript, current html

Question

Is there a javascript script that returns the current html of the window? I mean the content of the webinspector or Firebug html tab.

This extension has a "View Generated Source" option which will provide what you're asking: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/web-developer/ — Evan Davis, Apr 06 '12 at 17:50

Yes -- this has been discussed previously here on StackOverflow:

How to get the entire document HTML as a string?

In short,

var txt = document.documentElement.innerHTML;
alert(txt);

That is the html source, I mean the results after javascripts, ajax, etc...I would have the html that describes the current visualization in the browser window, or the current DOM – caporiccirob Apr 06 '12 at 17:53
