Somewhere in the source of the page should be a link. Once you have that link, you just call urllib2.open() on it. Search the page for the text you're seeing in the Name column in Chrome

Usually the server will give a different respond for XHR, which means you have to send XHR to get the XHR version. What was the question again?
