Abstract

A request for content is sent, using a client device, to a content server through a first network connection. A root document is received from the content server. The root document includes at least one content stub, where each content stub identifies a respective portion of the content as a deferred portion of the content and includes a content identifier of the respective deferred portion of the content. A network connection change to the content server from the first network connection to a second network connection is detected. A determination is made to download at least one deferred portion of the content through the second network connection based upon a configured download constraint assigned to the deferred portion of the content and a network characteristic of the second network connection. The deferred portion of the content identified by the respective content stub is obtained.
