Hi,

I have a requirement to serialize a portion of an HTML Document to a string
that contains the equivalent HTML. This is inside a XUL app, using
Javascript. I'm trying to find a scriptable component to do this.

I found the following things related to what I'm trying to do:

nsIDOMSerializer interface.
(serializeToString(nsIDOMNode) is exactly! what I want to do)

nsIDocumentEncoder.h [which has an IID defined but no corresponding IDL]

and the suite of content-serializer/document-encoder components that take
MIME types as arguments (all of which only support nsISupports).

e.g. @mozilla.org/layout/contentserializer;1?mimetype=text/html

I'm not able to connect all these pieces of information to come up with a
simple solution to my problem.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Krishnan.
