Abstract
A web page that includes content form fields may be modified to include an event observer module and an authored content module. The authored content module adds a hidden “events observed” field to the form fields. Events generated during the authoring of content by a user are recorded by the event observer module. When the content is submitted from a client browser to the web server, the events generated during the authoring of the content are added to the events observed field and submitted with the content. The web server uses the events to determine a DOM of the web page and compare the observed DOM with a stored DOM for that web page and that particular interaction. The page structure may be optionally modified by the web server to enhance the analysis of the DOM comparison. The web server analysis facilitates detection of non-human content submission at a client browser.
