Html missing when using View page source
<p>Im trying to extract all the images from a page. I have used Mechanize Urllib and selenium to extract the Html but the part i want to extract is never there. Also when i view the page source im not able to view the part i want to extract. Instead of the Description i want to extract there is this: </p>

<pre><code> &lt;div class="loading32"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt;

 &lt;/div&gt;
 &lt;/div&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>But if i try to view it using the inspect element option its there.
Is there a easy way to figure out what this script does without any java knowledge? So i can bypass it. or is there a way to get an equivalent of inspect element using selenium in python 2.7? What is the difference between View page source and inspect element anyway? </p>

<p>Possibly you're trying to get elements that are created with a client sided script. I don't think javascript elements run when you just send a GET/POST request (which is what I'm assuming you mean by "view source").</p>
