Is there a way to download Cached Picture in HTMLViewer?
I know theres ways to get Pictures scrapping the source code, using execute script method and Javascript.
But, for example I have a Captcha, and as you know this is the purpose of a Captcha, every time is invoked always change.
So I Wonder if exist a way or a plugin that download the Pictures stored on cache of the HTMLViewer.

Helping you get around this is as bad as software piracy. It’s data piracy.
What you are doing is not legal, and in my opinion should not be allowed in these public forums.[/quote]
No, First of all, Is no Piracy, Much developers are pointing to access that website, And I don’t want to attack any server or damage no-one.
I understand that this government department put a Captcha in order to not to overload the servers, and I understand that, by the other side of the coin. That government department push and press to the taxpayers to download and be up to date with their taxes, and they demands responsibility but at the same time put Restrictions.
By the other side, I solved, The idea is not to save captcha.
Only I wanted to wait until the DOM of the webpage is loaded, to hide all content and only display the captcha.
I used document.ready Jquery
No API + CAPTCAHA = We don’t allow access to this outside of our website.
CAPTCHA isn’t only about sever load, it can also used to stop unauthorized applications like yours that aren’t allowed to access the service. What you are doing is wrong in so many ways. If you were allowed to build your own app there would be an API. If the service owner is only concerned about server stress, they would issue API keys which would have rate limits.

This is asking the user to solve the CAPTCAHA for you, which is still the very same thing.
As I have to keep telling you over and over, ask for an API to get access.
At any rate trying to manipulate a captcha is probably futile. Most developers make sure what you want to do cannot be done. So it is not as simple as downloading a picture. Precisely because captchas are here to prevent automation.
