I’m trying to capture all HTML tags from a url, by using:

set dom = Utilities.HTMLDom
dom.LoadFromURL(“http://www.google.com”)
set doc = dom.document
doc.tostring(html)
msgbox html

This outputs a blank msg. Any suggestions?

Also if I do:

dom.savetodisk(“c:tempoutput.txt”)

only the strings from the URL are written, not all the tags.

See the URL below for the DHTML properties and methods:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms533050.aspx

For example, you need to use the innerhtml property to access the html.
```
  
set dom = Utilities.HTMLDom
dom.LoadFromURL("http://www.google.com")
set doc = dom.document
msgbox doc.body.innerhtml

set doc = nothing
set dom  = nothing
```

‘doc.body.innerhtml’ only captures tags within <body>. I want all tags.

You may be able use the All collection (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537434.aspx) to access all tags.

There are HTML/Scripting forums on the web which could be useful to get more advice relate to your enquiry. Example:
