Detecting Selection of Disabled Inner Links Within Nested Content

Abstract:

Detecting selection of disabled inner links within nested content techniques are described herein. In one or more implementations, a document comprising nested content is displayed on a display of a computing device. The nested content is obtained from a third-party source and includes one or more disabled inner links to respective target portions within the nested content. A disabled link service monitors an address associated with the third-party source of the nested content to detect an address change corresponding to a user selection of one of the disabled inner links within the nested content. Responsive to detecting the address change, a respective target portion of the nested content associated with the selected inner link is located by scanning the nested content. The document is then scrolled to cause display of the target portion of the nested content on the display of the computing device.
