Jabba's headless webkit browser for scraping AJAX-powered webpages.

Usage:

------

`jabba_webkit.py  []`

`url`: the page whose source you want to get

`time`: The application will quit after this given time (in seconds)

If the webpage is AJAX-powered and updates itself, you can

tell this browser to wait X seconds. Then it fetches the

*generated* HTML source.

You can also use it as a library:

    >>> import jabba_webkit as jw

    >>> html1 = jw.get_page(url1, time1)

    >>> html2 = jw.get_page(url2)    # yes, you can call it several times
