Browser emulator system

Abstract

A browser emulator is provided. An example browser emulator system includes a communications module to receive requests for web pages from a browser application, a document object model (DOM) interceptor to intercept an initial document object model (DOM) provided by the web application, an activator to activate a browser emulator, and a DOM manipulator to generate a modified DOM. A marked-up document that corresponds to the modified DOM includes an event interceptor that replaces JavaScript code associated with the original DOM provided by the web application.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A computer-implemented system comprising:
 a communications module to receive a request for a web page;   a document object model (DOM) interceptor to intercept an original document object model (DOM) provided by a web application in response to the request;   an activator to activate a browser emulator, the browser emulator being a Java runtime configured to execute JavaScript code; and   a DOM manipulator to replace JavaScript code in the original DOM with an event interceptor to produce a modified DOM, the modified DOM corresponding to the requested web page, the event interceptor to facilitate communications over a specialized communications channel between a browser application that renders the web page and the browser emulator.
