I'm using the following HTML page:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <title>Test Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <div id="1" class="foo">
    <h2>sample text with <code>inline tag</code></h2>
    <pre id="demo" class="foo bar">foo</pre>
    <pre id="output" class="goo">goo</pre>
    <input id="execute" type="button" value="execute"/>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

with the following code:

var html2json = require('html2json').html2json;
var json2html = require('html2json').json2html;
var fs = require ('fs');

// load the HTML from a file
var htmldoc = fs.readFileSync('./index2.html', "utf8");
console.log(htmldoc);

// convert the innerHTML of the body to JSON
var jsondoc = html2json(htmldoc.body.innerHTML);
console.log(jsondoc);

with the following output:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <title>Test Page</title>
    <meta charset="utf-8" >
</head>
<body>
    <div id="1" class="foo">
    <h2>sample text with <code>inline tag</code></h2>
    <pre id="demo" class="foo bar">foo</pre>
    <pre id="output" class="goo">goo</pre>
    <input id="execute" type="button" value="execute"/>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

[stdin]:12
var jsondoc = html2json(htmldoc.body.innerHTML);
                                     ^
