http://links.twibright.com/features.php:

"Links runs in text mode (mouse optional) on UN*X console, ssh/telnet 
virtual terminal, vt100 terminal, xterm, and virtually any other text 
terminal. "

Links2 supports Javascript.

I haven't used it but it seems to have command line options, maybe, like

Open Source, so if the GPL is usable for your project, you can probably 
repurpose it.
