Thank your for reply Daniel. Considering my limited knowledge of web
programming and javascript , first i need to simulated the some sort of browser in my program which will run the javascript and will generate the pdf. After that i can download the pdf . Is this you mean ? Is Network.Browser any helpful for this purpose ? Is there way to solve this problem ?
Sorry for many questions but this is my first web application program and i am trying hard to finish it.
Have you tried finding out if simple URLs exist for this, that don't require Javascript? Does Wikipedia have a policy on this? Conrad.

It looks to me that the link is generated by javascript, so unless you
can script an actual browser into the loop, it may not be a viable approach.

I tried to use the PDF-generation facilities . I wrote a script which generates the rendering url . When i am pasting rendering url in browser its generating the download file but when i am trying to get the tags , its empty. Could some one please tell me what is wrong with code. Thank You Mukesh Tiwari
