Why do I get "HTML Truncated" on the Last Response tab?

Some large web pages are enough to make the "Last Response" tab non-responsive. In order to prevent performance issues, screen-scraper will truncate the HTML. You can still see it, however, if you:

  1. Click to "display response in a browser"
  2. Right click and view the source for that page

You may edit the screen-scraper.properties file to allow more to be displayed, but in so doing you may run afoul the aforementioned performance issues. To do so you either edit or add a line:

MaximumDisplayedLastResponseLength=[desired length]

If you do that you should also disable syntax highlighting on the Last Response. That will allow you to show much more content with less performance less impact. To do so, you need to have version 7.0.1a or newer, and on the scrapeable file > advanced tab, check "Disable Last Response Syntax Highlighting". Instructions to update are here.
