Get the whole innerHTML (parent + child)

Question

On a js script, I have a div which I add dynamically some childs. So from the beginning, I can't know how many childs my div will contains.

When I try to get the innerHTML of my div container, I only obtains the html of the div. Not the html of the node.

How can I get the innerHTML of the whole components, through the childs ?
