Getting a DHTML node as an html string

I've created a 'div' using DHTML. Is it possible to see what it looks like as a string of HTML. So something like this:

var d=document.createElement('DIV');
d.style.border='1px solid';
d.innerHTML='Hi there';

Converted into:

'<DIV STYLE="border:1px solid">Hi there</DIV>'

There is an outerHTML property that would return the full HTML as a string but this is only supported in IE. However, there was already a post on this site with this issue where some experts have provided workarounds.
