How to get the <html> tag HTML with JavaScript / jQuery?
Solution 1:
The simplest way to get the html element natively is:
document.documentElement
Here's the reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document.documentElement.
UPDATE: To then grab the html element as a string you would do:
document.documentElement.outerHTML
Solution 2:
This is how to get the html DOM element purely with JS:
var htmlElement = document.getElementsByTagName("html")[0];
or
var htmlElement = document.querySelector("html");
And if you want to use jQuery to get attributes from it...
$(htmlElement).attr(INSERT-ATTRIBUTE-NAME);
