Extracting Data from web site using JavaScript

I have been extracting Data from https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/ and the website defualts to showing active fires within the last 90 days. There is a filter to change it to 365 days and others, but when I go into power query I am only able to see the first 90 days no matter what. I think it is a table that is being changed by a JavaScript and so I can' see the new table when it is loaded.  Has anyone figured out a way to deal with JavaScript tables using Power BI?  I am new to Web Scraping and  could use some helps around this issue.

@jmccort,

It seems there is an issue with the website. When I change the active filter to 120 days or 365 days, and use the following URL to get data from page that is greater than 4(for example, page 6), there is no table to be loaded. Please contact InciWeb support that if it has REST API or backend database to get all data.
