Abstract
A system can capture screenshots of web content, and HTML sources for the web content when respective screenshots are captured. Document Object Model (DOM) information can be extracted from each HTML source and provided in a respective DOM extraction file (DEF) associated with each screenshot. The system can receive a keyword and search a repository including each screenshot and DEF combination, find the keyword in select DEFs, and identify select screenshots corresponding to the select DEFs with the keyword. Identifying marks can be added to the select screenshots in locations according to absolute coordinates for nodes corresponding to items in the select DEFs that include the keyword. A list of the select screenshots with identifying marks can be displayed for selection. The system can perform accurate searches of web screenshots independent of image quality and assist build and quality control processes for delivering web-content offerings.
