MODERATORS
This might not necessarily be the kind of solution you're looking for but what I would do in this situation is use the web archive plugin to archive the page and then take the archived page and print that out instead.
Does that help?
Hmm. Interesting approach. If it works, it works. I'll give it a shot and report back.
Edit: Unfortunately, this didn't work either.
Can you share the URL?
It's in the post itself.
Alright, I've worked this problem before and this site is specifically designed to make it impossible to do what you're trying to do.
The next step, I fear, is to load the page with network diagnostics and analyze the traffic with the end of reverse engineering the API. After youve done that, maybe you can download the proprietary file type they use and then try to parse it.
There's a chance that someone already someone who's done this. I noticed a few fonts for music notation and a bunch of JavaScript.
From the design elements I see, it's loading some midi file or something like it, again, probably proprietary. I'm outta options.
Maybe try looking for a website that downloads directly from API or a GitHub that does the same.
Oof. Facepalm.
I see the issue now. I'll work on this and get back to you.
