wget and javascript links

2002-05-14 Thread Kevin Murphy 

Wgetters,

I love wget and use it all the time.

However, I am trying to suck a particular site which relies excessively 
on javascript'ed links, e.g. via window.open, sometimes wrapped in 
function calls.

I realize that in general this an intractable problem, but is anybody 
aware of a partial solution?

Is there something similar to wget that would allow me to write my own 
hooks to get at the javascript-wrapped links?

Thanks,
Kevin

Some people expressed interest in having a Javascript
interpreter included in Wget but AFAIK no one actually did it.

Someone pointed out that Javascript code is often simple enough
that one could write a script to parse it and extract the links.
