Getting the Content of an HTML Element
var p1Contents = $("#p1").html(); var div1Contents = $("#div1").html();
Containing the content inside an HTML element is easy using the jQuery .html() method. Calling this method with no parameter returns an HTML string version of the content. If the content is just text, the return is a simple string. If the content is HTML elements, the string is included in the HTML tags.
