item,A,en_GB,http://tobyinkster.co.uk/article/home/,Home,"<p>This is the personal website for Toby Inkster. As you&#8217;re on the front page you probably want to know something about me, or find out what is here.</p>  <h2>About Me</h2>  <p>Condensed life story: I was born in 1980 in Tokyo (my name in Japanese is <span lang=""ja"">&#x30C8;&#x30D3;&#x2013;</span>) and raised in Sydney and Nottingham.

item,A,en_GB,http://tobyinkster.co.uk/article/web-navigation/,Navigation,"<p>Toby&#8217;s top ten tips on Navigation&#8230;</p>   <ul> <li><strong>10:</strong> A web page should not offer a link to itself (except perhaps a link to a location further down the page).</li> <li><strong>9:</strong> Don&#8217;t hide the link to the site map away. Some sites seem to place it in the tiny print (along with copyright) at the bottom of the page. Put it near the top: by the search box for example&#8230;</li> </ul>  "
item,A,en_GB,http://tobyinkster.co.uk/article/web-abbr/,Abbreviations,"<p>There are two <acronym title=""hypertext markup language"">HTML</acronym> elements for dealing with abbreviations: <code class=""html"">&lt;acronym&gt;</code> and <code class=""html"">&lt;abbr&gt;</code>.</p>  <p>So what&#8217;s the difference? Although it is generally agreed that any shortening of a word or phrase is an abbreviation, and that some abbreviations are acronyms, there are two schools of thought on deciding exactly <strong>which</strong> abbreviations are acronyms&#8230;</p>"
item,A,en_GB,http://tobyinkster.co.uk/article/browser-sizes/,Browser Size Survey,"<p>In a discussion in the alt.html.critique newsgroup a few interesting questions were raised:</p>   <ul> <li>What is an average screen size in pixels?</li> <li>Do people tend to surf with their browser maximised? Or only taking up a smaller portion of their screen?</li> <li>Are people with smaller screens more likely to maximise their browser?</li> <li>So what is an average browser width in pixels?&#8230;</li> </ul>  "
item,A,en_GB,http://tobyinkster.co.uk/article/web-fonts/,Fonts,"<p>A lot of web designers like to set specific font sizes on their web pages. Why do they do this? Simply because they don&#8217;t trust people to have decent default font sizes and assume that they can pick a better size. With an open mind, let&#8217;s examine whether this is a logical assumption. There are three possibilities when it comes to default font size&#8230;</p>"
item,A,en_GB,http://tobyinkster.co.uk/article/tv2html/,tv2html,"<p>Various bits of <span class=""caps"">HTML</span>/XML-related software for the Linux operating system</p>"
item,A,en_GB,http://tobyinkster.co.uk/article/jukebox/,jukebox.pl," <p><em class=""software"">jukebox.pl</em> is a <em class=""software"">GTK2</em> player for Ogg Vorbis files written in Perl. It uses SDL for audio output.</p>  <p><strong>Why yet another Linux media player?</strong><br> Because this one has just the features I need and nothing more. It provides the facility to select which song you want to hear next (and if no songs are queued, will select one at random); skip the current song; pause; and a volume control. I don't need anything other than that, and I'd image that a lot of other people don't either. (If anything, the volume control is an extravagance!)</p> "
