Ad hoc contact data capture

Abstract:

Ad hoc contact data capture includes establishing a connection to a software application. A browser renders a source page from a source server. An extension of the browser receives a page event from the browser after rendering the page, the page event identifying a selected location of the source page. Ad hoc contact data capture further includes identifying source data from the source page after receiving the page event, calculating a distance between a contact element of the source page and the selected location to identify the source data, and populating the source data into the software application.
