If clicking on a button or link invokes javascript to get the next page, the WAVE doesn't follow that link. To get there you need to go to the page from the normal, un-waved site, and once you are at the page, click the "WAVE"button on your browser. Or, if you haven't put a wave button on your browser, type the URL of the page into the wave entry form.. There's a complication if the site also uses frames though. If javascript replaces just the contents of one frame, you have to open that frame in a new window, and then wave it via a button or the form.
