Publication number: 20050066270Abstract: A data presentation system dynamically generates and renders a user interface (UI) in the form of a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) document. Extensible Markup Language (XML) data files contain data that defines the UI. The XML data is maintained independently of any application and/or computing system's settings and controls that define the presentation of the UI. The XML data files also have reference links to secondary data files that contain data further defining the UI. The UI is dynamically generated when an application invokes the XML data files. The HTML document incorporates the data from both the XML data files and from the secondary data files when rendering the UI.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2004Publication date: March 24, 2005Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Arish Ali, Brian Aust, Paul Hellyar, Joel Grossman

Patent number: 6807693Abstract: A multi-angle hook fastened to an extension member, that is used to stop the extension from completely pulling out of the frame it sits in. When fully extended, the multi-angle hook allows at least three different holding positions, seen as three different angles that the extension sits at while using the multi-angle hook as its fixed point of pivot. The multi-angle hook is a metal, plastic, or wood plate bent along several parallel lines, across its width, at varying angles.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2001Date of Patent: October 26, 2004Assignee: Grossman Project Services Sdn.

Patent number: 6585448Abstract: A bracket and method for connecting two component members, where the bracket is concealed from the outside of a joint formed by the two component members. The bracket includes a first flange having a hole for receiving a securing member and at least one second flange, including at least one protrusion for engaging a cavity in a first member to be secured. This design may use a single screw or bolt, and therefore saves assembly time and reduces product cost.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2001Date of Patent: July 1, 2003Assignee: Grossman Product Services SDN.
