  • I already saw that answer in my investigation... but I thought that as that is nearly 13 years old, maybe things improved. I'll edit my question to clarify... thanks.

    You're editing the DOM, not the HTML. And even before editing, the DOM may be different than downloaded HTML because it may have been edited by JavaScript. Not to mention that eg. original HTML may not be exactly spec-conformant and DOM will have that "corrected", possibly losing some information.
