Appeal No. 2003-1094
Application No. 09/131,063
THE REJECTIONS
The claims stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as follows:
claims 1-5, 7-38, 46 and 48-50 over Hayashi, and claim 6 over
Hayashi in view of Nielsen.
OPINION
We affirm the rejection of claim 46 and reverse the
rejections of the other claims. We need to address only the
independent claims, i.e., claims 1, 23, 35, 38, 46 and 48.2
Claim 46
Hayashi discloses a method for generating a hypertext
document, comprising authoring a hypertext document having a
comment tag which is displayed in the same window with the
associated document data (col. 23, lines 61-63; figure 29).
Because, when the hypertext document is displayed, the comment
tag appears in the same window as the document data, the comment
tag reasonably can be considered to be embedded in the hypertext
document.
2 The examiner does not rely upon Nielsen for any disclosure
that remedies the deficiency in Hayashi as to independent claim 1
from which claim 6 indirectly depends.
