Ask HN: How to wget pages with javascript?

You can write a NodeJS script using the JSDom module to do this.

Thanks for the suggestion. Any idea how to accomplish this task without using JS?

I'm surprised chromium, konqueror and firefox don't offer this functionality for offline browsing.

Selenium (http://seleniumhq.org/) might work but it's not a simple command line script.

Selenium will do this, although it's not pretty. I spent about 4 months on a contract doing exactly that, and it sucked.

iMacro? Rhino?

Personally, I'd use http://www.phantomjs.org/ and create a script which loads the page like a browser. Once you've done that you can get it to take screenshot or use JS to pull data off the page.

Thanks. I really want to get this done with the command line and it looks like Phantom JS will do the trick.
