Abstract
Co-browsing shadow DOM elements is enabled by detecting shadow host DOM elements and nested shadow host DOM elements on the visitor DOM. Identifiers are attached to the DOM elements within shadow DOM regions to uniquely and efficiently identify the DOM elements within shadow DOM regions and nested shadow DOM regions. When shadow DOM elements are transmitted on the co-browse session, the identifiers specify where the DOM elements are located (which shadow DOM regions) so that the agent co-browse JavaScript is able to efficiently locate the DOM elements without querying each shadow DOM region. The agent co-browse JavaScript maintains a map correlating shadow root identifiers with the HTML of the shadow DOM regions and associated constructed stylesheets, so that the HTML of a shadow DOM region is not required to be re-transmitted if the portion of the DOM including the shadow host is replaced.
