Technical stuff, mostly
But hey... some webs are a pain to parse with all of this tricky javascript code floating around, right ?Here you are, controlling your browser (including its javascript engine) as if it was a puppet:http://code.google.com/p/firewatir/Did I say I liked screen scraping ? :)Cheers
There's also selenium (http://seleniumhq.org/ , not the mercurial site :) ) that lets you drive firefox programmatically too.I tried it some time ago, but you know, too many things to hack on, and so little time....It also has a perl module to use it from your favourite language :) http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-WWW-Selenium/
