Method and apparatus for securely co-browsing documents and media URLs

Securely sharing a document over a co-browsing session is implemented by causing a JavaScript implemented document viewer to create an HTML5 description of a rendered view of document content and to transmit the HTML5 description of the rendered view of the document content as a DOM element over the co-browsing session. The rendered view of the document is overlaid on a web page being co-browsed, which causes participants of the co-browsing session to collectively view the rendered view of the document. However, since the document itself resides only in the visitor browser, the document itself is not transmitted over the co-browsing session. Media URLs may also be shared, and participant views of audio/video media are synchronized by causing video to play local to each participant but in synchronization with the visitor. Real-time video of the participants of the co-browsing session is also implemented. 通过使得JavaScript实施的文档查看器创建文档内容的渲染视图的HTML5描述并且在协同浏览会话上将所述文档内容的所述渲染视图的所述HTML5描述作为DOM元素传输来实施在所述协同浏览会话上安全地共享文档。将所
