Appeal 2007-1268
Application 10/177,845
STATEMENT OF THE CASE
Appellants' invention relates to the collaborative manipulation of a
document from remote locations using an application such as a Web
browser. In the words of the Appellants:
Generally speaking the present invention
contemplates a system and method that enable two
or more users at remote locations to work
collaboratively using only a ubiquitous application
such as a conventional web browser. An image of
a document such as a web page is provided to both
users by their respective applications. Events that
occur on one of the applications are then mirrored
or replicated on the other. In this manner, the
users can cooperatively work on a networked
document.
(Specification 3:8-13.)
Claim 1 is exemplary:
1. A method of document collaboration in a
networked data processing system, comprising:
transferring a first event code sequence from
a server to a first client system responsive to a first
ubiquitous application on the first client system
accessing a first page on the server wherein the
first event code sequence is configured to monitor
events occurring in a second window launched by
the first ubiquitous application;
transferring a second event code sequence to
a second client system responsive to a second
ubiquitous application on the second client system
accessing a second page on the server;
responsive to the first event code sequence
detecting a first application event occurring in the
