Curl works exactly the same way as wget in downloading those files, and
any program that parses the link out of its results, but does not
understand JavaScript, would act like Wget does, for the reasons I
mentioned in my immediately preceding response. I hadn't seen this
message yet. It "appears" to work better, because with Curl you're
forced to view the result with your browser, since curl can't itself
parse the links, and of course your browser understands the JavaScript.
