Appeal No. 2004-2271
Application No. 09/731,650
With respect to dependent claim 15, Appellants argue at page
8 of the brief, “[t]his passage of the Block disclosure is silent
as to . . . the data set which was stored by a downloaded,
client-side script for producing tables of dynamic size according
to the screen display capabilities of the client device.” We
have reviewed claim 15 and find no such limitation in the claim.
We find that this argument is not commensurate in scope with
claim 15 and is unpersuasive for that reason.
Therefore, we will sustain the Examiner’s rejection under
35 U.S.C. § 102.
Other Issues
Should there be further prosecution of this or a continuing
application, we highly recommend that a search be made of DOS
based database data entry screen processes. To provide more
efficient operation the current invention dynamically parses data
entry into a sequence of windows each of which is fully shown on
the display. Due to hardware display limitations, older DOS
programs were forced to parse data entry into a sequence of
windows each of which was fully shown on the display. The open
question being, did these DOS programs dynamically parse the data
entry based on a script? We leave it to the Examiner to address
this issue.
