Solution 1:

Possibly you're trying to get elements that are created with a client sided script. I don't think javascript elements run when you just send a GET/POST request (which is what I'm assuming you mean by "view source").

At the time I was not aware how much content is loaded in through js after the page is loaded. Mechanize does not have a JavaScript interpreter. The way I ended up solving this is extracting the links from the *.js file and redoing the get commend with urllib and getting the required content that way.
