HtmlUnit - Convert an HtmlPage into HTML string?

java html xml htmlunit

I'm using HtmlUnit to generate the HTML for various pages, but right now, the best I can do to get the page into the raw HTML that the server returns is to convert the HtmlPage into an XML string.

This is somewhat annoying because the XML output is rendered by web browsers differently than the raw HTML would. Is there a way to convert an HtmlPage into raw HTML instead of XML?

Thanks!

page.asXml() will return the HTML. page.asText() returns it rendered down to just text.
