Getting the outer div in JQuery

Question

Possible Duplicate:
Get selected element's outer HTML

I'm getting a class like this:

   <div class="className">
      content in here
   </div>

And then I'm getting it in JQuery like this:

$('.className').html()

Which only outputs:

content in here

When I want it to get everything, including the parent div.

Thanks for any help

Do you mean including the current div tags? or Parent div content(which will have other content along with the current div and its content)? — KishoreK, Aug 05 '11 at 09:43
