[Htmlunit-user] HtmlUnit XPath vs. Chrome Console

[Tristan J. <tt7...@gm...>]

    (Hoping this is addressed to the right mailing list)

      As my title would portray I'm using HtmlUnit to find the elements of
a webpage (in particular a youtube playlist) that are that are quiet deep
within the tree of elements, and whilst this should pose no problem I've
nonetheless been experiencing some inconsistencies between results on one
platform and another, assuming them using the same language/commands return
the same results. I need to find this section
https://gyazo.com/a22e1d145b32a3194720b6cecb513123, from the <tr> tag down
to the <td> tag that has both the video name and URL. Using your libraries
in netbeans I fiddled around for a number of hours with exceptionally long
(for an attempt at absolute accuracy within the bounds of my required
modularity) XPath statements (
https://gyazo.com/f2444e85abd252df43ea95c44b811489) and to no avail. It
seems to get stuck on the <ul> element just before the classless, id-less,
unidentifiable <li> tag, yet when I assumed this task in the chrome console
it returned all the videos in the playlist with exceptional ease
https://gyazo.com/104e110ee3260d1c7517f5b9a8374efb.

     Now my question(s) is, is the difference in returned values a products
of my coding, misuse of your product, security feature of youtube (to
prevent this exact sort of thing), or a bug within the libraries? Moreover
how do I go about achieving the same results as the chrome console but in
my Java application?

     Any help is much appreciated,
                                                  ~ T.G.J.
