Summary
The application relates to a system for automatically adapting web pages to provide links from predetermined words to additional material stored on a database. The Hearing Officer applied the Aerotel/Macrossan test and decided that the contribution made by the invention fell solely within excluded matter. He also considered the Court of Appeal decision in Symbian and the decision in AT&T & Cvon and concluded that the contribution did not have a relevant technical effect. The application was refused as no more than a program for a computer as such and, so far as it was not a program for a computer, as the presentation of information as such.
