Appeal No. 2006-0927
Application No. 09/949,488
Claims 1-26 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 102(b) as
anticipated by Gabber.
Reference is made to the briefs and answer for the respective
positions of appellants and the examiner.
OPINION
A rejection for anticipation under Section 102 requires that
the four corners of a single prior art document describe every
element of the claimed invention, either expressly or inherently,
such that a person of ordinary skill in the art could practice the
invention without undue experimentation. In re Paulsen, 30 F.3d
1475, 1478-79, 31 USPQ2d 1671, 1673 (Fed. Cir. 1994).
The examiner explains, at page 3 of the answer, how Gabber is
applied against independent claim 1, citing column 9, lines 55-61,
for a method of providing user context information; column 8, lines
17-34, for receiving user context information from a user; and
column 6, lines 5-11, for transmitting a HTTP request with user
context information.
