I am trying to click on a CSS button via CURL/WGET, however so far I am having no luck. The exact link location for the CSS button is a dynamic URI - for example:
domain.com/some/page?thing=1
Still when you access that page via curl/wget it does not trigger the action. There is a CSS selector which I need to access somehow. I found this:
http://codeception.com/docs/modules/PhpBrowser
However it requires installing additional software which is not an option. I need something that would work with curl/wget or perhaps a sample PHP script. I tried providing the following argument to wget:
--header="selector: some-selector"
However it does not achieve the desired result.
Here is some more information from the comment, so that it is easier to see:
I've got the HTTP headers and tried to replicate them but with no luck. They are too long so I uploaded example headers to:
Could anyone provide example script/command that could be used to achieve the above?
The action is not triggered by accessing the url - it requires you to click on a button. I have provided HTTP headers in my previous command. Here is what the exact button looks like when inspected:
<div style="margin-bottom:15px;">
<a style="display:block; width:350px" href="http://www.test.com/hos/6/42?game=1" id="game-one">
<img src="http://www.test.com/images/thumbs_up.jpg" width="24" height="24" />
Sample Text
</a>
</div>
So basically I need to activate the game-one selector some how - simulate a click on that button via a script. The PHPBrowser that I mentioned above seems to offer this functionality, however I cannot install it as it requires additional software which is not an option in this case.
