USING A PROXY SERVER FOR A MOBILE BROWSER

Techniques describe providing a web page for a proxy-based browser on a mobile device to enhance user experience. A proxy server receives a layout of the web page, extracts web elements from the web page, and captures images of the web elements of the web page. The web elements are incorporated with a background screen image to form a composite screen format to represent a display of the web page. The background screen image is compressed by splitting an encoded frame into fixed-size slices and splitting a previous screen frame into fixed-size slices. The proxy server provides the web page synchronized with the mobile device based on the composite screen format and the compressed background screen image. Furthermore, the proxy server receives input from a user to provide updates to web elements that are dynamic on the web page to be displayed on the screen of the mobile device.
