               storing a network address of the page; and                              
               storing the section of the page such that when the network              
          address is used to access and display the page, the section of               
          the page is displayed, the section storing step including the                
          steps of storing a current size of a window within which the page            
          is displayed, storing positions of scroll boxes in scroll bars in            
          the window and storing font attributes of the displayed page.                
               The Examiner relies on the following references in rejecting            
          the claims:                                                                  
          Brisebois et al. (Brisebois)        6,129,679      Apr. 17, 2001             
          Littlefield et al. (Littlefield)    6,564,208      May 13, 2003              
                                                   (filed Feb. 24, 2000)               
               Claims 1, 6, 7, 12, 13, 18, 19 and 24 stand rejected under              
          35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable over Brisebois and                  
          Littlefield.                                                                 
               Rather than reiterate the opposing arguments, reference is              
          made to the brief and answer for the respective positions of                 
          Appellants and the Examiner.  Only those arguments actually made             
          by Appellants have been considered in this decision.  Arguments              
          which Appellants could have made but chose not to make in the                
          brief have not been considered (37 CFR § 41.37(c)(1)(vii)).                  
                                          2
