example useage of PyKDE's KHTMLPart document.toString() function:

http://www.mail-archive.com/pyqt@riverbankcomputing.com/msg09577.html

unfortunately, the discussion centres around how the function causes a
segfault!

but the documentation on Document.toString's existence, in the KDE HTML DOM
model bindings, is here:
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/3.3-api/khtml/html/classDOM_1_1Document.html

hmmm.. that seems a bit out-of-date, here's a more up-to-date one:
http://api.kde.org/3.5-api/kdelibs-apidocs/khtml/html/classDOM_1_1Document.html#fa3edf3819e0dc6ccf120e5e5d462ccf

there's also a kde 4.x and a kde 4.1 version.

there is however also a toHTML() function in DOMNode, which is listed as
"deprecated" - presumably someone decided that calling toString "toHTML" was a
bad idea.

ah!  finally!  i found a by-function-name reference:
http://api.kde.org/4.0-api/kdelibs-apidocs/khtml/html/functions_0x74.html

which shows that the two occurrences of toString() are in DOM::Document
and DOM::Range:

http://api.kde.org/4.0-api/kdelibs-apidocs/khtml/html/classDOM_1_1Range.html#2358111339856f9a61bf0456d03daf3a

also, it looks like DOM::Node.toHTML _didn't_ get deprecated, after all,
and is still there:
http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdelibs-apidocs/khtml/html/classDOM_1_1Node.html#249840ef6631b425d7ced51397545b32


so, overall, KDE's KHTMLPart interface has a limited supply of "toString"
functions [which make it a far-from-ideal candidate as a target for
pyjd but that's another story] but it _does_ actually _have_ the most
important toString functions - the ones for DOM::Document and DOM::Range.
