Abstract
A computer-implemented process, computer program product, and apparatus for computing excluded data. A web page of interest is identified to form an identified page. The identified page is loaded a first time to form a first load, and responsive to a determination that a delta has not been computed for the identified web page, the identified page is loaded a second time to form a second load. Whether portions of the first load differ from portions of the second load is determined. Responsive to a determination portions of the first load differ from portions of the second load, the portions that differ to form a delta are identified. The delta is stored to form stored delta and the stored delta is excluded from a document object model associated with the identified page to form a modified document object model.
