Abstract

Embodiments described herein enable a browser to display content of a web page that is incompatible therewith. When such a page is to be traversed, the first browser causes a virtual machine that executes an instance of a second browser with which the page is compatible to be instantiated. The browsers communicate via communication channels utilized to share information therebetween. For instance, the first browser provides a URL of the page to the second browser for traversal thereby. Graphics information corresponding to the page is provided to the first browser. The first browser generates an image corresponding to the page based on the graphics information and renders the image in a tab of the first browser. This enables a visual experience for the user where it appears that the page is being rendered by the first browser when it is in fact being rendered by the second browser.
