edit request.
FINDINGS OF FACT
The following Findings of Fact (FF) are shown by a preponderance of
the evidence.
The Invention
1. Appellants invented a system and method for enhancing the
document editing abilities of a web browser. An editing program running in
the browser supplies an editing request to the browser in place of a request
received from a user. The Document Object Model (DOM) is then accessed
and edited to remove the portion of the DOM related to the substitute edit
request and insert appropriate tags to achieve the original edit request
(Specification 4).
2. In one embodiment of the invention, the substitute edit is a
predetermined request that the selected characters be rendered in the color
gray. The specific color is chosen only for convenience (Specification 11).
Peck
3. Peck teaches a software package for editing Web-based
documents, including a module for interfacing with a browser and a module
for receiving from a user a selected portion of a Web-based document
currently displayed by the browser and a desired editing function to be
performed on the selected portion (Abstract).
