I don't think the link checker is likely to support scripting of any sort in the near future: it could easily be a huge drain on system resources, and making it secure could be very difficult. (Does there actually exist a (Java|ECMA)Script (+ DOM?) implementation outside of a browser?) Why not write a little something to pull the URI references out of the scripts in your pages and turn them into real hyperlinks in a little HTML file you can pass to the checker? Assuming that your scripting is halfway sane, such a specific tool should be reasonably simple.
