Is there a way in JS to get the entire HTML within the html tags, as a string?







document.documentElement.??

  1. MS added the outerHTML and innerHTML some time ago but they aren't universally supported. See quirksmode for browser compatibility for what will work for you. All support innerHTML however (except Konqueror).

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

  2. document.documentElement.innerHTML

  3. You can also do:

    document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML


    You will not get the Doctype or html tag, but everything else...

  4. I believe document.outerHTML should return that for you.

    Edit: As the MSDN page on the outerHTML property notes, there is no standard that supports this, although IE 6+ and more recently several other browsers now support it. Colin's answer links to the W3C quirksmode page, which offers a good comparison of cross-browser compatibility (for other DOM features too).

  6. The correct way is actually:

    webBrowser1.DocumentText

  7. I always use

    document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML


    Probably not the right way but I can understand it when I see it.

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
