Re: [WebDriver] getPageSource - Does it need to be a remote end call?

Every browser should be covered by outerHTML or XMLSerializer. If you want
to be paranoid, you can add an extra clause to clone the tree (ouch) as a
child of another node and return the innerHTML:

var source = document.documentElement.outerHTML;
if (!source) {
  if (typeof XMLSerializer !== 'undefined') {
    source = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(document);
  } else {
    var div = document.createElement('div');
    div.appendChild(document.documentElement.cloneNode(true));
    source = div.innerHTML;
  }
}
return source;
