compile()
This function compiles a complete page or parts thereof and returns the page's contents. It's a way of manually getting the content for an ajax call. It produces a similar result to the one fetched via the collect() method, the main difference being that all additional code added by the script() or style() methods will be omitted. So when using this method to show content make sure that all your CSS code and JS code is in place.
