http - save a webpage with VBS -


when use firefox "https://twitter.com/search?q=vbs", works , see tweets (without ever logging on). but, when try use simplest vbs-scripting way xmlhttp, seems declared mobile user twitter , don't search results. so, how can change vbs code below make work? in principle, seems should able set objxmlhttp property spoof browser, again, microsoft wouldn't give me freedom easily. comments great!

strfileurl = "https://twitter.com/search?q=vbs" strhdlocation = "c:\users\me\webpages\saved_tweets.html" set objxmlhttp = createobject("msxml2.xmlhttp") objxmlhttp.open "get", strfileurl, false objxmlhttp.send() if objxmlhttp.status = 200   set objadostream = createobject("adodb.stream")   objadostream.open   objadostream.type = 1   objadostream.write objxmlhttp.responsebody   objadostream.position = 0   set objfso = createobject("scripting.filesystemobject")   if objfso.fileexists(strhdlocation) objfso.deletefile strhdlocation   set objfso = nothing   objadostream.savetofile strhdlocation   objadostream.close   set objadostream = nothing end if set objxmlhttp = nothing 

maybe fake user agent (browser) in http request twitter consider browser desktop :

set objxmlhttp = createobject("msxml2.xmlhttp") objxmlhttp.open "get", strfileurl, false objxmlhttp.setrequestheader "user-agent", "mozilla/5.0 (windows nt 6.1; win64; x64; rv:23.0) gecko/20131011 firefox/23.0" objxmlhttp.send()
