phantom js is not loading page

Closed

kashif_ghafoor opened this issue

I am loading this page in phantomjs https://www.meetup.com/find/?source=EVENTS&location=us--ny--New%20York&eventType=inPerson

But I am not getting expected results. There is difference when I use document.querySelectorAll('a[data-event-label="Event card"]').length This query selects 21 in my browser. But when I log this in phantomjs it logs 0.

I think this is the problem that's why on crawl of this page there is not URL in queue

Andrey Bykov (Andrey_Bykov)

Hey there! PhantomJS development stopped in 2018, which is almost 5 years ago. Sadly, PhantomJS does not work reliably with modern websites... I could only suggest using the Web Scraper instead (same as my colleague Lukas already recommended on discord).

JSDOM Scraper

apify/jsdom-scraper

Parses the HTML using the JSDOM library, providing the same DOM API as browsers do (e.g. `window`). It is able to process client-side JavaScript without using a real browser. Performance-wise, it stands somewhere between the Cheerio Scraper and the browser scrapers.
