/**
 * AutoQUEST - HTML Monitor
 * 
 * Description: This script records the interactions done by an user on an
 * HTML-Website and sends them to a server. It does not register actions on
 * Flash, Java, or other special inputs. This script is tested on Firefox
 * 15.0.1.
 * 
 * To insert it on your HTML-side, you need to write <script
 * language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="autoquest-htmlmonitor.js"></script> in the
 * head and change the src-attribute to the location, you have chosen for this
 * script.
 * 
 * To change the recorded events, edit the action config array. If you want to change
 * the server where the data is send to, rewrite the destination variable. The
 * records are send to the server, JSON-formatted, if there are 10 inputs or the
 * user changes/closes the site.
 * 
 * Authors: Simon Leidenbach, Simon Reuss, Patrick Harms
