in reply to How to scrape data from ajax calls

By 'google tasks' do you mean tasks within Google Calendar? If not that I have no idea what you mean (nor does google) however Using WWW::Selenium To Test Or Automate An Ajax Website from the tutorials section of this site may be of interest to you.

Update: Fixed formatting typo.

    By google tasks, I mean this. I'm trying to auto login into gmail and then scrape all the tasks from there. Unsuccessful yet :(
      shakuni,
      Ok, you have been given a hint (Using WWW::Selenium To Test Or Automate An Ajax Website). Why don't you start by saying what you have and have not accomplished.
      • Successfully Loging
      • Click the "tasks" link
      • Find the tasks pop-up window
      • Fetch the HTML of the tasks pop-up window
      • Parse the HTML to the desired end

      In other words - show some effort and give us something more to go on than "it doesn't work".

      Cheers - L~R
