How to get the full HTML content of an iFrame?

I have an application where I want to save 100% of the contents of an iFrame. This includes the <html> tags also (if they exist).

I have only found a solution on how to save the iFrame's content starting from the section.

var if = $('#myiframe').contents().find("html").html();

This however isn't good, because I don't know if theree always will be a HTML tag in the document. Also, the second problem with this approach is that it's not returning the <html> tags.

I need some function with which I can return everything inside of an iFrame with no excuse.

Any idea how to achieve this?

I have finally found a solution by doing the following:

var if = document.getElementById('#myiframe').contentWindow.document.documentElement.outerHTML;
