Reading in generated Web Source

[al_Marshy_1981]

I was wondering if it is possible to read in generated web source using java, by generated web source i mean html that has been changed by javascript. I can read in a page with URL and URLConnection but when i change the html by using javascript the java program still reads in the old original html.

If it is possible where would i find information about it.

Thanks in advance

changed by javascript

I assume you mean what the browser does in response to javascript code execution.
I don't know of any way to get at that. It's generated in the browser. Perhaps some plugin would be able to read it and pass it out to a java app.

yes the javascript codes exection. I have a plugin for firefox that lets me view the generated source, but I cant for the life of me find where firefox stores this file, if it does at all.

Thanks for the reply anyhow

try placing
about:config
in the url for firefox

I think Firebug simply keeps track (as the browser does) of changes to the structure caused by the Javascript. Doesn't write it out anywhere...well, except the Firebug window.

Okay thanks for the replies. Probably just try a long winded work around with normal text files
