http://main.linuxfocus.org/ common/linkus/linkushtml_full.html:
This is a full featured html file. You fetch it periodically with curl, lynx -dump or wget and then just use normal apache Server Side Includes
(<!--#include virtual="linkushtml_full.html" -->)
or php
(<?php include ("linkushtml_full.html"); ?>)
The example box you see on the left would e.g look in html as follows. The main part of this html code just produces this box arround it.


<TABLE cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" 
border="0" width="250" align="left" 
bgcolor="#111111">
  <TR>
    <TD>
      <TABLE cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" 
      border="0" align="CENTER" 
      bgcolor="#BEBEBE" width="100%"
        <TR>
          <TD>
            <TABLE cellspacing="1" 
            cellpadding="3" border="0"
            bgcolor="#FFFFFF" align="CENTER" 
            width="100%">
              <TR>
                <TD bgcolor="#113366">
                <FONT color="#FFFFFF" size=
                "+1"><!-- TABLE HEAD -->
                 <I>LinuxFocus.org </I> 
                <!-- END TABLE HEAD -->
                </FONT> </TD></TR>
              <TR><TD>
<!--#include virtual="linkushtml_full.html" -->
              </TD></TR>
            </TABLE>
          </TD>
        </TR>
      </TABLE>

  • QCAD: Technical drawing with Linux
  • Running applications remote with X11
  • Developing Gnome applications with Python (part 2)
  • Chrooting All Services in Linux
  • MySQL and Perl, the marriage of convenience
  • Writing CDs with Linux
  • "Linux System Administration - A User's Guide" by Marcel Gagné
http://main.linuxfocus.org/ common/linkus/linkushtml.html:
This is similar to the above format but contains only links to the English articles. You fetch it periodically with curl, lynx -dump or wget and then just use normal apache Server Side Includes
(<!--#include virtual="linkushtml.html" -->)
or php
(<?php include ("linkushtml.html"); ?>)
The example box you see on the left shows how it looks like. This file format is as well easy to post process with e.g perl or other scripts as it is just one "<a href=..." per line.


Format 3: full text file

http://main.linuxfocus.org/common/linkus/linkusbase.txt:
This file is for further processing with e.g perl. It is one article per line. You get the URLs to languages other than English by replacing the word "English" in the URL with the language name.

Format 4: rss

http://main.linuxfocus.org/common/linkus/linkus.rss:
This file is for further processing with e.g perl XML::RSS. RSS is a file format commonly used on the internet to distribute links to other sites. It was invented by Netscape.

Format 5: text ampersand seperated

http://main.linuxfocus.org/common/linkus/linkus.txt:
This file is for further processing with e.g perl. Fields span over several lines and are seperated by two ampersands.
