:getElementById( <cID> ) --> oHTML | NIL

:saveFile( <cHTMLFileName>, [<nIndent>], [<cLineBreak>] ) --> lSuccess 

Stores the HTML code reflected by the object and its child objects in the file <cHTMLFileName>. The HTML code is formatted according to the passed parameters. <nIndent> is a numeric value specifying the number of spaces to be used as indentation for each nested level of child-list arrays (defaults to 1 space per level), and <cLineBreak>defines the character(s) to be used as line-end markers (defaults to Chr(13)+Chr(10)).
