O Denizens of the Cloister of the Fruit of the Oyster,

Using LWP::UserAgent, when I look at the content of a page that has lots of Ajaxy stuff, I see the Javascript, but not the results of the Javascript.

In some cases, I need to see the final page, after all the Javascript has altered the page. Is there a way to get this from the U.A.?

For the present, I have switched over to using IE as driven by Win32::OLE, but if it is possible to do in LWP, or some other more Perlish way, I would rather do that.

Also (in a somewhat related question) I have searched CPAN for 'Greasemonkey' related scripts, but find nothing. Is anyone doing anything that simulates Greasemonkey for LWP scripts?

Just another Nabob of Nacre

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
