Hi,

I want do use liburl to scan a webpage which is only accessible from within
my LAN environment. While mozilla manages to load the target URL properly
neither wget, nor liburl or liburl2 does.
I had a closer look at the html source and discovered a lot of Javascript,
including Cookies.

My suspicion is that the Javascript code needs to be executed for the page
to work properly. Also I don't know how liburl deals with Cookies, but
since they are handled by the Javascript in the source code they are
probably not considered at all.

In any case I get an IOError: connection refused, Error Code 111.

Does anyone know a way out of this?

Thanks for any hints,
Ciao
Uwe
