Struggling with R scraping: How do you handle dynamic content and pagination?

Dynamic content is tricky, but you’re on the right track with RSelenium. One thing that helped me was using `waitForElement()` to ensure the content loads before scraping.

For pagination, I’d recommend using `purrr::map()` to loop through pages. It’s cleaner than a for-loop and handles errors better.

Also, if you’re dealing with heavy JS sites, maybe look into `Puppeteer` (not R, but super powerful for dynamic stuff).
