When using HtmlUnit, how can I configure the underlying NekoHtml parser?

问题

I'm using HtmlUnit to try and scrape a webpage because of it's Javascript support. (I'd rather use Jsoup, but no JS support).

The issue relates to a feature of the underlying NekoHtml parser: "http://cyberneko.org/html/features/scanner/allow-selfclosing-iframe"

See: http://nekohtml.sourceforge.net/settings.html

This can apparently be enabled in Neko, but I'm using HtmlUnit. Is there a way to configure the underlying Neko parser that HTML unit is using to enable this feature?

When attempting to run this code:

final WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
HtmlPage page = webClient.getPage(url.toString());

I'm getting this error:

回答1:

try initializing the web client with FF behavior

WebClient webClient = new WebClient(BrowserVersion.FIREFOX_3_6);

and activate javascript

webClient.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

it should be ok then.

Solved...

    BrowserVersionFeatures[] bvf = new BrowserVersionFeatures[1];
    bvf[0] = BrowserVersionFeatures.HTMLIFRAME_IGNORE_SELFCLOSING;
    BrowserVersion bv = new BrowserVersion(
            BrowserVersion.NETSCAPE, "5.0 (Windows; en-US)",
            "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8",
            (float) 3.6, bvf);

    WebClient webClient = new WebClient(bv);
    webClient.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
