Simple CasperJS script to load page with fake referrer and follow all redirects. The HTML for the final page is printed along with the redirect URLs.
//setup casper
var casper = require('casper').create({
verbose: true,
//Fake the user agent
pageSettings: {
userAgent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; chromeframe/25.0.1364.152) AppleWebKit/537.22 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/25.0.1364.152 Safari/537.22'
},
logLevel: "debug"
//logLevel: "error"
});
phantom.cookiesEnabled = true;
var referrer = "";
var target = "";
//get referrer and target from cli
//EXAMPLE: casperjs redirect_hunter.js "http://referrer.com" "http://target.com"
if(casper.cli.has(0)){
referrer = casper.cli.get(0);
}else{
casper.echo("Error: No referrer specified.")
casper.exit();
}
if(casper.cli.has(1)){
target = casper.cli.get(1);
}else{
casper.echo("Error: No referrer specified.")
casper.exit();
}
casper.start();
//handler to print the url for each redirect
casper.on('navigation.requested', function(url, navigationType, navigationLocked, isMainFrame) {
this.echo('Loading URL: ' + url);
this.echo('Will actually navigate: ' + navigationLocked);
this.echo('Caused by: ' + navigationType);
this.echo('Main Frame: ' + isMainFrame);
});
//first load the referrer page
//WARNING: referrer must be a valid website that loads
casper.thenOpen(referrer, function() {
});
//fake the referrer by injecting an href with the target into the referrer page and clicking it
casper.then(function() {
this.evaluate(function(targeturl) {
var a = document.createElement('a');
a.setAttribute('id', 'fakereferrer');
a.href = targeturl;
document.body.appendChild(a);
document.querySelector('form').submit();
}, {
targeturl: target
});
this.click('#fakereferrer'); //Fake a click on the href to add bubble-search as the referrer
this.wait(5000)
});
casper.then(function(){
this.echo('Final URL: ' + this.getCurrentUrl());
//print the HTML from the final page
this.echo(this.getHTML());
this.capture("page.png");
this.exit();
});
casper.run(function() {

Hi. This script gives me

[error] [remote] mouseEvent(): Couldn't find any element matching '#fakereferrer' selector

Have you got an idea?
