  • Publication number: 20160232139
    Abstract: A computer receives a document and identifies one or more target elements and/or properties associated with the document, hereafter referred to as targets. The computer detects alterations associated with the targets prior to the computer executing those alterations. If the computer detects an alteration associated with a target, the computer creates a breakpoint and pauses execution of the document prior to executing the alteration. The computer displays the output of the portion of the document executed prior to the alteration, then at the users command executes the portion of the document containing the alteration. The computer displays the output of the portion of the document executed including the portion containing the alteration, providing the user a before and after display of the effect of the alteration. The computer repeats this process for any other detected alterations and allows a user to cycle through the before and after of the alterations.
