Text based webbrowser that supports JavaScript?

If I

lynx beforeitsnews.com

then I can't see the page because it needs a JavaScript compatible webbrowser.

Are there any text-based webbrowsers that supports JavaScript?:

Based on the comments under this article (which is old but provides some good pointers):

  • elinks - experimental javascript support (as of 2005 - may be better now?)

  • links2 - supports javascript and pipelining and image display without X

  • links-hacked - ssl and some javascript support
