            Appeal No. 2002-1517                                                                              
            Application No. 08/927,660                                                                        


                   With respect to independent claims 12, 19, and 23, we find similar limitations             
            concerning the parsing and altering being performed at the client as with independent             
            claim 1.  Since we find that the examiner has not established a prima facie case of               
            obviousness of independent claims 12, 19, and 23, we cannot sustain the rejection of              
            independent claims 12, 19, and 23 and their dependent claims.  Furthermore, we agree              
            with appellant that the teachings of Brown do not remedy the deficiency in Mighdoll.              
                   With respect to independent claims 25, 28, and 31, we agree with appellant that            
            the examiner has not established a prima facie case of obviousness of the claimed                 
            invention with respect to the functionality being performed at the client with a browser          
            rather than at an intermediary as discussed above.  Since we find that the examiner has           
            not established a prima facie case of obviousness of independent claims  25, 28, and              
            31, we cannot sustain the rejection of independent claims  25, 28, and 31 and their               
            dependent claims.                                                                                 













                                                      7
