How did you manage to save code generated by JavaScript? Are you using
some add-on I don't know about? The only way I get to see generated code
is by using Chris Pederick's Web Developer toolbar-- and that does not
show a complete page, as many elements in the <head> are left out.

FWIW - I use the "Save Complete"[1] add-on to save everything, including
scripts inside Conditional Comments. But this does not necessarily give
a working set of files. If your scripts include a path to resources, for
example, it will fail because all resources are placed in a single
directory... :(
