    <p>I am trying to fetch the html source from this usl: <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=NZlV0M5Ije4C&amp;dq=isbn:0470284889" rel="nofollow">http://books.google.com/books?id=NZlV0M5Ije4C&amp;dq=isbn:0470284889</a></p> <p>I used the following code:</p> <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/env python import urllib, urllib2, urlparse, argparse, re from bs4 import BeautifulSoup def getPageSoup(address): request = urllib2.Request(address, None, {'User-Agent':'Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)'} ) urlfile = urllib2.urlopen(request) page = urlfile.read() urlfile.close() print 'soup has been obtained!' return BeautifulSoup(page) soup2 = getPageSoup(address) metadata = soup2.findAll("metadata_row")#this content is present when viewing from the web browser </code></pre> <p>However, the html source from soup2 looks hardly like the source from the Google Books page:</p> <pre><code> &lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN""http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"&gt; &lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;title&gt;Quantitative Trading: How to Build Your Own Algorithmic Trading Business - Ernie Chan - Google Books&lt;/title&gt;&lt;script&gt;(function(){function a(c){this.t={};this.tick=function(c,e,b){b=void 0!=b?b:(new Date).getTime();this.t[c]=[b,e]};this.tick("start",null,c)}var d=new a;window.jstiming={Timer:a,load:d};try{var f=null;window.chrome&amp;amp;&amp;amp;window.chrome.csi&amp;amp;&amp;amp;(f=Math.floor(window.chrome.csi().pageT));null==f&amp;amp;&amp;amp;window.gtbExternal&amp;amp;&amp;amp;(f=window.gtbExternal.pageT());null==f&amp;amp;&amp;amp;window.external&amp;amp;&amp;amp;(f=window.external.pageT);f&amp;amp;&amp;amp;(window.jstiming.pt=f)}catch(g){};})(); &lt;/script&gt;&lt;link href="/books/css/_9937a87cb2905e754d8d5e36995f224d/kl_about_this_book_kennedy_full_bundle.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>HTML source from urllib2 and my web browser are very different. How can I get the correct page source?</p> <p>Thanks!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
