Laravel Dusk: How to get HTML from element?

I understand that you can get the text from an element, like this:

$text = $browser->text('.selector');

My question is: How can you get the raw HTML content? E.g. the following doesn't work

$text = $browser->html('.selector');

E.g. if the element is:

<div class='selector'><p>Hello</p></div>

I'd like to get the following as the output (with the < p> tags):

<p>Hello</p>

Thanks

Solution

  • To get the source code of your element you should use the element() method together with the getAttribute() like this:

    $html = $browser->element('.selector')->getAttribute('innerHTML');
// now in $html you have HTML inside .selector element
