Abstract
Style instructions, which may be coded in a style language and not include application logic, can be used to both control presentation of content of a web page by a web browser and control monitoring of interactions with the web page. Selectors in the style instructions, for example, can be used to identify elements of the web page and define styles for the elements. As a result of implementing such style instructions, individuals tasked with design of a web page can more easily and quickly configure monitoring of interactions with the web page.
Claims20
A system for processing and transmitting data indicative of user interactions with a content page, the system comprising:
- a memory device configured to store a content page, the content page comprising a plurality of elements;
- and
- a hardware processor in communication with the memory device, the hardware processor being configured to:
- load the content page in an application,
- visually present the plurality of elements in the application a first time according to first style instructions,
- execute script instructions a first time,
- as part of executing the script instructions the first time:
- parse the first style instructions for first configuration information,
- determine, from the first configuration information, to monitor first user interactions with a first set of the plurality of elements, and
- initiate monitoring for the first user interactions with the first set of the plurality of elements in the application,
- visually present the plurality of elements in the application a second time according to second style instructions different from the first style instructions,
- execute the script instructions a second time, and
- as part of executing the script instructions the second time:
- parse the second style instructions for second configuration information,
- determine, from the second configuration information, to monitor second user interactions with a second set of the plurality of elements, and
- initiate monitoring for the second user interactions with the second set of the plurality of elements in the application.
A method for processing and transmitting data indicative of user interactions with a content page, the method comprising:
- by a memory device, storing a content page comprising a plurality of elements;
- by a hardware processor, loading the content page in an application;
- visually presenting the plurality of elements in the application a first time according to first style instructions;
- by the hardware processor, executing script instructions a first time, wherein said executing the script instructions the first time comprises:
- parsing the first style instructions for first configuration information,
- determining, from the first configuration information, to monitor first user interactions with a first set of the plurality of elements, and
- initiating monitoring for the first user interactions with the first set of the plurality of elements in the application;
- visually presenting the plurality of elements in the application a second time according to second style instructions different from the first style instructions;
- and
- by the hardware processor, executing the script instructions a second time, wherein said executing the script instructions the second time comprises:
- parsing the second style instructions for second configuration information,
- determining, from the second configuration information, to monitor second user interactions with a second set of the plurality of elements, and
- initiating monitoring for the second user interactions with the second set of the plurality of elements in the application.
Non-transitory physical computer storage comprising computer-executable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, are configured to implement a process comprising:
- storing a content page comprising a plurality of elements;
- loading the content page in an application;
- visually presenting the plurality of elements in the application a first time according to first style instructions;
- executing script instructions a first time, wherein said executing the script instructions the first time comprises:
- parsing the first style instructions for first configuration information,
- determining, from the first configuration information, to monitor first user interactions with a first set of the plurality of elements, and
- initiating monitoring for the first user interactions with the first set of the plurality of elements in the application;
- visually presenting the plurality of elements in the application a second time according to second style instructions different from the first style instructions;
- and
- executing the script instructions a second time, wherein said executing the script instructions the second time comprises:
- parsing the second style instructions for second configuration information,
- determining, from the second configuration information, to monitor second user interactions with a second set of the plurality of elements, and
- initiating monitoring for the second user interactions with the second set of the plurality of elements in the application.
