No, You don't run the javascript in the server, you take the current
state of the document tree converted to HTML (using innerHTML, or in
some way constructed if you want to stay strict DOM2) and send that
HTML to the validator, I certainly wouldn't suggest having the
validator process the javascript - it would be possible of course, but
as you say not desirable.
