A technology is disclosed for the browser side capturing of user interaction session data and replay of the session data for a high-fidelity reconstruction of the experience the user perceived. In addition to capturing central structuring and markup documents and browser side updates thereof, additional resource documents that are loaded and used by the browser to render the central documents are captured and added to the session recording data. Identification information is created for resource documents, based on the content of those documents, which allows the capturing system to distinguish different versions of those content documents that share the same name but have different content. The captured session data contains data to identify the correct versions of resource documents during replay. Various measures to reduce the amount of transferred resource content data are applied, that consider already captured resource document versions or the usage frequency of a monitored application.
