Is there a way to "print" the current document object using JavaScript?
What
I am trying to get is the current html of the page, which would include
any changes to it since it was loaded in the browser (for example, if a
radio
button was checked).

I could probably write a parser to take the document node and traverse it,
generating the html as I go along, but that seems like a lot of work.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Try:

<script language="JavaScript">
function HTML() {
popup = window.createPopup();
popup.document.body.style.backgroundColor = "lightyellow";
popup.document.body.style.border = "solid black 1px";
popup.document.body.style.padding = "5";
popup.document.body.innerText = document.body.outerHTML;
popup.show(100,100,500,700);
}
</script>
<button onclick="HTML()">HTML</button>
