Re: Executing JavaScript on Result

I have dealt with this before.  From my experience, you can replicate the
JS code in your Grinder script (utility code).  Grinder does not instrument
JavaScript.  You may have already read this in the docs here:
http://grinder.sourceforge.net/g3/features.html and
http://grinder.sourceforge.net/faq.html.

I am guessing this nonce is passed in the HTTP request?  If it is, then you
would inject the data generated by your Grinder utility code (emulating the
JavaScript).
