Getting source code into a variable 1

[jonthequik]

I am trying to figure out if there is a way in JavaScript to get the source code out of a page, and into a variable. I know that you can get the code with a button value of "view-source:

http://www.server.com/"

but I need it to load into a variable instead of an editor.

Any ideas? Jonathan Hannan

most meta tags (not all of em):

document.all.tags("META&quot[0].getAttribute("name&quot
document.all.tags("META&quot[0].getAttribute("content&quot jared@aauser.com

oops, didn't catch that part.

Jared, does document.all.tags("HTML&quot[0].innerHTML work?

yeah!! and now to put this thread to sleep:

document.all.tags("HTML&quot[0].outerHTML

the whole document. jared@aauser.com

 

[luciddream]

so, now the only thing missing are linked stylesheets and included js files.

which we can get the names of, but not the actual contents, unfortunately (as far as I know)... jared@aauser.com

And I think once we know the urls for those, by accessing the src and/or hrefs, we can use the download behavior (too much to write here) - more on it at:
