Hi,
VBScript is not supported by HtmlUnit, only JavaScript.

 Subject: [Htmlunit-user] Error Accessing Page
   

Hello,

I'm a new user to HtmlUnit and am unfortunately receiving an error on the first page I tried to load. I'm not sure if the error lies with me or the page, but here are the details:

Code I am trying to execute


public void homePage() throws Exception {

try (final WebClient webClient = new WebClient()) {

final HtmlPage page = webClient.getPage("http://www.ukho.gov.uk/ProductsandServices/MartimeSafety/Pages/NMPublic.aspx");

} catch(Exception e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

}


It's failing on the getPage call, saying "======= EXCEPTION START ========

Exception class=[net.sourceforge.htmlunit.corejs.javascript.EvaluatorException]

com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.ScriptException: syntax error (script in http://www.ukho.gov.uk/ProductsandServices/MartimeSafety/Pages/NMPublic.aspx from (714, 460) to (755, 10)#744)" followed by an impressively long stack trace. Lines 714-755 of the page seem to be snippets of code dealing with the browser context and the start of a VBSCRIPT block. Does this page have elements HtmlUnit can't handle currently or is my accessing approach incorrect?


Thanks for the help,

David Marks
