Apple

I have a workflow where I'm pulling out the HTML source out of an email with:

tell application "Microsoft Outlook"

set theList to current messages

set theMsgContent to content of item 1 of theList

end tell

The variable theMsgContent is an HTML file which has some formatted HTML tables in it with data. I would like to execute a chunk of _javascript_ on that HTML to parse out certain data out of it using something like:

document.getElementsByTagName('td');

Short of writing out the HTML file to disk and then opening it in Safari to perform a:

tell application "Safari"

set theResult to do _javascript_ xyz in tab a

end tell

Is there a way to execute _javascript_ code on a file without involving the browser? Ideally, I'd like to do this with some resource that comes with a standard installation of OS software since this script will be distributed across multiple workstations and I don't want to have to maintain a certain environment for the script to be able to run.

Thanks.
