Do you know of any crawler able to follow javascript generated links.
I am referring to links which are computed on the fly.

I have't heard of anyone followinf javascript links... but if the link is just genrated via javascript <a href="url"> type link, I suppose a spider could follow it...
Could you be more specific about how the links are generated?

There are some spiders that will extract every http: url it runs into, even in javascript. No mainstream se's spiders that I know of.

It appears to me that Looksmart is following javascript on my pages, and indexing the page the javascript is pointing to. I am intereseted to know if this is in fact what is happening. Can the major search engines now follow javascript links?
