I realise that I am probably trying to misuse the espruino Javascript software, so please feel free to give me a hard time.
I would like to read some status data in web pages from various devices on my network, the status pages include data collected by Javascript. The only thing I have available is an embedded computer that has an Xscale processor running Linux. I have cross compiled the espruino software, it was pretty easy, once I stopped trying to be clever. On the target device I can run './espurino --test-all', most of them pass. If I then use http.get, I can get the webpage, but without the Javascript data, indeed the web page on the device I have tested sends back a message that my browser doesn't support Javascript. Is what I am trying to do even possible with the espruino Javascript software?
I have tried other ways to get a headless web browser with Javascript support, but they either compile to huge files or I haven't been able to get them to cross compile.
