Abstract
The present disclosure relates to techniques for causing functions provided by a remote browser to be executed when functions provided by a local browser are requested. For example, a local BHO can intercept a request for the local browser to perform a navigation function. When the navigation function is designated to be provided by the remote browser, the local BHO can (1) prevent the local browser from performing the navigation function and (2) send a communication to a remote BHO to cause the remote browser to perform the navigation function. The remote BHO can cause representations of webpages to be sent to the local browser without visual representations of functions provided by the remote browser. By not having such visual representations, the local BHO can use visual representations from the local browser as visual representations of functions provided by the remote browser.
