document.getElementById('pageTitle').toString() - does that actually return
what is inside your div? (i.e. do an alert())
I would think that you would be just fine either using .innerHTML() or some
sort of .val() property instead of .toString()?
If toString does in fact properly stringify your output, then I would look
to see if there are any tags associated with standard HTML or XML, you may
need to escape those tag characters (like < and >), so you could use a
variety of techniques with varying success like encodeURIComponent or my
personal favorite, importing a JSON library and just using JSON.stringify().
So try those other methods first, on first glance I would've thought that
your code would try to actually take the DOM object and convert it into a
string as opposed to taking the value inside the DOM Object and turning it
into a string.
