in reply to Need to pull a javascript generated webpage

Firefox can give you the HTML that results from Javascript being run in the browser. There is the Firefox View Rendered Source extension for that, and likely you can replicate that by automating Firefox with WWW::Mechanize::Firefox.

    Thanks Corion- how do you suggest I go about replicating it? I've used the Perl::Mechanize module before, but not Mechanize::Firefox. Can you give me a few more tips on how to implement this? I still feel lost.
