firefoxmozrepl

get page html with MozREPL using Firefox 55.0.3 (64-bit)


Is this possible at all? MozREPL is now apparently incompatible with this version of Firefox, but Firefox is very hard to stop updating.

I want to automate a browser again, not a headless one.

Is there any browser I can use at all, where i can just simply read the page HTML and automate form submission?

That's it really, last time I done this, Firefox was good for this.

Thanks


Solution

  • If you are on linux, you can downgrade to 54, and hold the update. Firefox will complain about not being able to update, but that's it. Other possible solution should be a container with firefox 54 installed, but I did not have the time to try it out. The script(s) should be run inside the docker, I suppose.
