Is there anyway to view Javascript through XBMC.
Like a particular webpage that has java script.

I'd like to be able to view Nascar Pit Command on my XBOX.

or port it to xbox if possible

I know it is available for cellphones too...

Umm unlikely...i was under the impression that linksboks had poor javascript support.

btw good job on posting this like 4 times  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

sorry about the multiples, i kept getting an error when posting

I don't wanna use linksbox to view a web page, just wondering if it is possible to parse
other web elements instead of just audio,video and pictures

If anyone is up to the challenge, I'd like to be able to view "Nascar pit command"
I know there are audio streams to listen to in-car audio, i found them.

but I'd like to watch the javascript too

any ideas

This is what I have been trying to do for the entire season.

I just can figure out a way to get the content viewable through my xbox so that I can just switch back and forth through my inputs to watch the race, and then watch pit command.  I've been thinking of just setting up windows media center.

Any further thoughts on this?

sure, in a simple explanaion (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

parse the website in python and make replacements for all tags.. you could be able to make the entire website look like in a browser.

but this would be a HUGE work, sorry to say.

and it would all be broken by them changing layout on the page (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

so my guess is that it will never be done, because its to much work involved.

Hmmm...so sites with javascript, which never change layout can bew viewed correctly? Weh I use linksboks to access my router's config page, it only displays 2 lines and stops, possibly due to javascript. I am using the Belkin F5D7230-4 router. Some sort of script to view router config pages would be just great. Those pages never change format. Here's some snippets of the source code of the router's config page:
