I have a group of objects on my page. I want to get the first one, so I do this:

var tmpLi = li.first();
console.dir(tmpLi);

This works fine; it returns this in firebug:

enter image description here

I need to return the value of the outerHTML element, but can't seem to figure out how to get it. I've tried:

var tmpLi = li.first().data("outerHTML");

and

var tmpLi = li.first().attr("outerHTML");

var tmpLi = li.first().attr("outerHTML");

both of which return "undefined". Help?
