PhantomJS - page.evaluate is not a function

The problem you are having is that page.open() does not return the page -- it returns the status. So the value being passed to the next then() is the status, which you try to call evaluate on that. This, of course, doesn't work.

The way they handle this in their example is have a page variable outside the then() chain that they can access inside each then(). You are almost doing that with _page = page; If _page is defined outside the function, you should be able to call _page.evaluate() rather than calling it on the return value from open().

var phantom = require('phantom'); var _page; phantom.create() .then(function (ph) { _ph = ph; return ph.createPage(); }) .then(function(page) { _page = page; url = "http://www.aeiou.pt"; return page.open(url); }) .then(function(status) { // check status for errors here console.log("hello3"); _page.evaluate(function () {
