Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am trying to use WWW::Mechanize to capture the source of the page after all javaScript have executed. content() captures only the code on the page load - before the javaScript executes.
How do I accomplish that?

My code:

test.html


<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script src="test.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>
  <p>Not loaded yet.</p>
</body>
</html>

[download]

test.js

$(document).ready(function () {
     $("p").text("The DOM is now loaded and can be manipulated.");
});

[download]

What method can I use so my captured source has "The DOM is now loaded and can be manipulated." instead of "Not loaded yet."
