I guess. curl brings the HTML for you, if that HTML does something in a
browser you need to tell curl what that something is.

In this case it sounds like javascript.

My advice: use LiveHTTPHeaders to figure out what your browser does, then do
the same with curl. If the javascript involves dynamic magic, write a script
that replicates the logic.
