It looks like all there is in IE is a selected object. I recommend that you
try opening your HTML document in OmniWeb
(www.google.com/search?btnI=&q=OmniWeb) and script it instead. (You should
be able to call and get the source.) As a last resort, have it open the HTML
in TextEdit as plain text and get it from there.
