          Appeal No. 2001-2542                                                        
          Application No. 09/000,760                                                  


          expanding the functionality of Radziewicz’s module to include               
          document retrieval and display capabilities [brief, pages 5-8].             
          The examiner responds by essentially repeating the                          
          rejection [answer, pages 7-8].  Appellants respond that the                 
          examiner’s purported motivation to combine the prior art is                 
          unsupportable because the network communications marketing system           
          of Radziewicz already served the purpose that the examiner                  
          contends would be served by incorporating the features of                   
          Hashimoto.  Appellants also argue that Radziewicz does not teach            
          downloading a code module executing on the client device to                 
          retrieve dynamic content to be presented to a user as asserted by           
          the examiner, but only allows the browser to include a window for           
          displaying advertisements [reply brief].                                    
          We will not sustain the examiner’s rejection of the                         
          claims on appeal.  We agree with appellants’ arguments that the             
          manner and motivation in which the examiner proposes to combine             
          the teachings of Radziewicz and Hashimoto does not make sense               
          and, therefore, would not have been suggested to the artisan.
