Javascript responses
I'm creating a scraping session for http://www.resultat.dk/fodbold/danmark. This seems to call http://www.resultat.dk/iframe/sport.php?sport=soccer&category=21&serial=108. An extract of the result is
My best guess is that this 'soccer' script is called, and produces the results. However, the screen-scraper proxy shows no ttrace of this script being called. If I view the page in IE and select "View Generated Source", the result is easy-to-read HTML.
So, my question is: Can screen-scraper handle this javascript and record the returned HTML?

Martin,
I didn't look into why or how but the page that contains the content is:
http://www.resultat.dk/res/ajax/websync.php?sport=soccer&date=0
At first glance it looks like nothing but gibberish but you can actually identify all of the content between the wacky ¬~AA÷ alien writing. It should make for some interesting extractor patterns and regular expression to grab out what you want.
I did a test to grab out the countries and competitions in the dark gray and it worked like a charm without using regex.
ZA÷~@COUNTRY@~: ~@TEAM@~¬ZB÷Perhaps it won't be too bad.
