Get all child elements including body using javascript

Question

The code below gets all children within body but it does not get the body element itself. How can I get all child elements including body with pure JavaScipt?

document.querySelectorAll('body *');

Answer 1

You are getting all inner elements of body tag instead use * to get all elements.

document.querySelectorAll('*');

If you want to get body and its all inner elements then use comma separated multiple selectors.

document.querySelectorAll('body,body *');
