For those of you that have tried using Resurrectio have probably noticed that it hardly works. Has anybody forked this project or can suggest an alternative to recording browser behavior and exporting it as casper.js? Or something similar to this?
I am using PhantomJS version 1.9.8 and CasperJS version 1.1.0-beta3. I am open to using different version of Phantom and Casper if I have to.
If anyone can suggest a different tool (javascript based) for web scraping, that would be great too.
Thanks in advance!

I have found ways to do this in python by starting a chrome debugger browser and using --remote-debugging-port such as this answer here. But I have not found any solutions for this using RSelenium. Does anyone know if this is possible using RSelenium?
Now that the owner of ASIHTTPRequest is no longer working on the library, is there another alternative that is as good as this library?
Or maybe will the repository from their github be updated? By, maybe someone else who is well educated about the project (At least someone knowledgeable will still continue to work on it)
Thanks
If you look at https://github.com/pokeb/asi-http-request/commits/master you'll see that it has been updated since the owner stopped working on it...
I would recommend AFNetworking as the best supported option for a general networking library

If you are mainly working with a RESTful API, then RestKit is a great library to use instead of writing your own glue code:

Can anybody show me simple working example using Qt(export DLL plugin file) and make it work with NPAPI. I want simple example to test it in Google Chrome. Any links, codes ...
Thank you
There's a nice framework called Firebreath for writing cross-platform browser plugins in C++. It comes with plenty of documentation and example projects, so it's easy to get started. As a plus, in addition to NPAPI hosts you pretty much get free support for ActiveX browsers (Internet Explorer) too.
http://www.firebreath.org
Check out the QtBrowserPlugin solution, http://doc.qt.nokia.com/solutions/4/qtbrowserplugin/developingplugins.html
There you should find information about writing your own NPAPI plugins.
Update:
I did not realize there was no useful link to the source, it can be found in gitorious at
http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-solutions/ to browse online http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-solutions/qt-solutions/trees/master/qtbrowserplugin
I'm using Chrome 5.0.375.86. Can anyone point me to a working example of an HTML page communicating (or at least establishing a handshake) in Chrome with a C# (faux) web server?
The current version of WebSockets in hixons-76 (or whatever) and not -75. What does production Chrome currently support? I think it's -75. Do I need the nightly build for -76?
This is also a nice example (The author says it should work with -76)

Heres a Related Question on SO, Should help you to get started
Maybe you will find useful my demo http://programistka.com/en/websockets-c/ which uses two open source libraries - one for server and one for client. In my opinion it is really worth to check them.
I recently discovered the org-mode in emacs and it works very well for me. I also like www.RememberTheMilk.com. I would like to be able to sync my org-mode file and RTM list. I know that RTM has its API exposed as web services. I am currently looking for a HTTP library that I could use to write my script. I found a couple of links but I am still not entirely satisfied.

Any pointers in doing web service interactions with emacs would be very useful. Also please keep in mind that I'm not a seasoned emacs expert. I have broken the initial barriers of emacs and can find my way around elisp. So, be gentle. :-)
Emacs ships with url.el and url-http.el. Although http-get.el, http-post.el and http-cookies.el are in vogue today. Here's the GitHub link where you can get it from.

Any other suggestions are also welcome.
If I were to work on this, I'd use Pymacs to interface Emacs to Python and then use the existing Python API kit for Remember the Milk. Why re-implement all the HTTP crud yourself?
