Yeah, that works:
jQuery.fn.elementHTML = function(){
var $nodes = jQuery("<div></div>");
this.each(function(){
$nodes.append(this.cloneNode(false));
});
return $nodes.html();
};
Note that it does *not* return text nodes within the elements, since
they too are child nodes. I would be interested to know what you are
doing with this, because I could not think of a good situation where
it might be used.
