Thx for your reply, Simon. Yes, I tried to use "-dump", but cannot reach my goal. With -dump, there are two problems: 1, history file is not touched. 2, Can not handle redirection by meta tag and JavaScript.
I try to use a browser, like Elinks, is because I want to find a way can resolve those redirections by one solution. And I'm sure Elinks could handle JavaScript better than my script :) On Fri, Mar 25, 2011 at 9:32 PM, Simon Ruderich <si...@ruderich.org> wrote: > On Fri, Mar 25, 2011 at 04:14:41PM +0800, Tian You wrote: > > Hi guys, > > I want to know can I run elinks without display the page, and exit after > > loading of the page is finished. > > You could use -dump and redirect the output to /dev/null.
