How to get effective HTML after executing all scripts?
Actually scripts are adding and modifying control and css in the page. I would like to see html of resultant display as a static page. Is there any way to get this?
Edit: Suppose if background image is added using javascript, How can i see in Html OR css?
Please try to get this before giving answer.
One way would be to use Firefox with the Firebug extension.
Firebug is an extension for web developers. Among other things, it offers an "HTML panel":
The HTML panel displays the generated
HTML/XML of the currently opened page.
It differs from the normal source code
view, because it also displays all
manipulations on the DOM tree.
[...]
A similar solution for MS Internet Explorer would be the Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar.
Note that both solution are browser-specific. There is no way to get the resultant HTML independent of the browser used, because this HTML only exists in the working memory of the browser (so you cannot, say, sniff it on the network).
Use the firebug plugin for firefox, with it you can 'view generated source'.
This is a javascript approach. Unfortunately, it doesn't work perfect. For example, it doesn't include the contents of textarea's.
document.documentElement.innerHTML
Another way is selecting everyting (Ctrl + A) and choose 'View selection source' from a context menu.
The Web Developer Toolbar addon for Firefox has a 'View Generated Source' button that let's you do that. It's under the 'View Source' Menu of the toolbar.
It presents manipulated document as a static source, like what the "View Source" option does, but with modification by the Javascript.

I found this website https://samy.pl/ and even with my HTML knowledge I can't find the source of his site?
If you type "view-source:" before the website it should bring up the source but it doesn't?
He blocked most or all ways to inspect his source.
How is this possible?
You can actually see the sourcecode using Internet Explorer, or Safari with IE 11 set as useragent.
I'm not certain how he does it, but it is some kind of JavaScript that checks some flag in Chrome that tells him whether or not the inspector is open, and if true he removes the body and updates page so everything disappears.
Using IE and inspecting the source should give you the answer :)
I used tumblr's javascript embed code to embed my posts into an external website. Now I want to style the posts. Where can I find the full list of tags, classes, and all of that in order to do this? I see people posting some of the tags, for exampe ol.tumblr_posts, but no one has said how or where they actually found out that's the tag tumblr is using for that particular element.
Someone mentioned using the web developer extension in Firefox to pull out the HTML associated with the javascript file but I can't use Firefox so I need another suggestion? I did go to tumblr's docs but the tags and everything used for customizing themes WITHIN tumblr seem to be different from the ones used to display posts outside of tumblr.
I also looked around in the api section and didn't see anything that lists all of the tags. Thanks!
UPDATE: Here's a post that discusses what I'm talking about but none of the people giving answers that show what tags to use to format the script's output say how or where they got the tags.

This website is the one that said to use the FF add on but again, the person who figures out how to find the tags using it doesn't say HOW, they just say it worked. I'm finally in a place where I can use Firefox so I installed this web developer thing and I still don't see where I would go to see the info that shows the actual html with all the styles instead of just showing the link to the js code.

Chrome and Opera's developer console is CTRL + SHIFT + I... try looking in the source there
IE's dev tools is f12 if you can't use Chrome
Also: I'm not sure if this is what you're talking about but I'll throw in this link for good measure:

I figured it out! Unfortunately, the only way I could do this was to use the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar Add-On. Once you have that installed, you go to the webpage where you've embedded your blog's javascript code.
Then, in the Firefox toolbar, there should be a tab that says "Miscellaneous". Click on that, then click on "Edit HTML". A new pane opens up towards the bottom of the browser. Inside, it will show the source of the webpage INCLUDING the information that the javascript code generates, which shows the classes, html, and all of that.
It's still not a ton that you can customize compared to using the api (which I don't know how to do) but it's a start. Thanks everyone!
I am looking for a way in IE to view the html source generated from jQuery code.
Ex.
HTML:
<div id="myDiv"></div>
jquery:
var wrapper = $("myDiv");
var generated = $("<div>Hello world</div>");
wrapper.append(generated);
I'd like to be able to examine and hopefully tweak the source generated by appending the generated element, not in Chrome or Firefox, but in IE 8 (where the problem is). I think that IE Developer Tools only shows the downloaded source, not what is generated.
Thanks.
Try going to the HTML tab in IE developer tools and press the refresh icon (next to the save icon), it will show the latest DOM.
Example:
Go to script tab and do:
document.body.appendChild( document.createElement("div") );
Then go to the HTML tab and hit the refresh icon and open the body tag, it should show the appended div now.
I recommend Firebug Lite - http://getfirebug.com/firebuglite (it's Firebug for IE, sort of)
You should get Firebug Lite. You can check the code that jQuery does and much more.
Anyway, I recommend that you put Google Chrome Frame compatibility on your site, it will eliminate plenty of problems with your site (with the people that have Google Chrome Frame installed).
I have an HTML document with inline javascript which adds some <div> elements. The elements appear on the screen, but I can't see any change in the HTML source after the elements have been added. I use the latest version of chrome, and I do "View" -> "Page Source".
Seeing changes in the HTML would really help for debugging!
Right-click on the element and select "inspect element"
Use firebug when using Firefox
For Chrome there is built in tool(use Ctrl+Shift+I)
Use Firefox, install web developer and choose "view source"=>"view generated source"
Is there a way to view the jQuery (or Javascript) generated HTML - for example, see the jQuery-modified source of a page that uses a number of prepend()'s html()'s etc.?
Use Firebug to look at the current DOM, although it is an interpretation of the HTML.
You can inspect the page with firefox addon FireBug though:
(source: gnucitizen.org)
In addition to Firebug as the other answers suggest, you can also use the built-in Chrome developer tools:
To access the tools you can do it the same way as Firebug, just right click and select Inspect Element.
Download the Web Developer plug-in for FireFox. Then Right click on the page, the select Web Developer -> View Source -> View generated source
