Feedback received from users regarding potential problems with an application, service, or other source of electronic content can be configured to include additional information that help triangulate the source of the problem. Content provided by third parties can be combined with content from a primary provider, but the primary provider often will be unable to determine the precise instance of third party content that a user received that might have posed a problem for the user, as may relate to malware or another such issue. By configuring feedback submissions from users to automatically include identifying information, and by logging session data for various users, a content provider can analyze and filter the data to determine likely sources of the problem, and deactivate or otherwise address those sources. Further, the content provider can analyze the information to locate any users likely to have been exposed to the same third party content.

Technologies are described herein for collecting client-side performance metrics and latencies. A web page received by a web browser application executing on a user computing device includes markup or scripting code that instructs the browser to collect performance measures during the rendering of the content of the web page. The performance measures may include operation timings that measure the time it takes for a particular operation to complete during the rendering of the content and/or event counters that count the number of times that a specific event occurs during the rendering of the content. The web browser application sends an event report containing the collected performance measures to a reporting module executing on a server computer. The reporting module receives the event report, validates the content of the event report, and adds the event report to a database or other data storage system.

Collecting client-side performance metrics and latencies

Supplemental content such as electronic advertisements may be previewed in situ. That is, supplemental content may be previewed in a context of a live and/or production environment along with the primary content available in that environment. In particular, electronic advertising that is still under development, that still requires testing and/or quality control, and/or electronic advertising that is unpublished may be incorporated into electronic pages by live and/or production electronic page generation computer systems. Furthermore, electronic advertising may be previewed in situ in a controlled and/or restricted manner.

Restricted in situ previews for electronic advertising

Techniques, including systems and methods, for providing content utilize templates. As part of providing content to clients, templates and arguments for the templates are provided to clients. The clients themselves receive the templates and arguments for the templates and instantiate the templates. Templates and arguments for templates may each be cached by clients and/or servers for efficient future use.
