Abstract
A method and system for recording, editing, and playback of web browser sessions, which captures a series of user visits to web pages, including the initial state of each page and all user interactions with the web pages, are provided. An application uses a web browser's native API (application programming interface) to record and store web pages and user interactions in a unique data format (not as video). Using the browser's native API for recording makes it possible to edit the recording of the user's web session, modifying the recording in ways that are not possible with video recording. The recorder application comprises a core engine implemented in JavaScript and various server configurations, either local or remote, for playback.
