How simple do you want patterns to be?

Is the aim to provide generic patterns with technology demonstrations, in which case, the example could be set up as 'how do I extract data from an HTML table' with gss as an example?

Also - I'm not sure how know how to use restructured text to include images?!;-)

PS this is my first attempt at a github pull request - what sort of size commits are typical for requests?

@psychemedia: amazing! Your work is now online at (note I have taken the liberty of renaming to liberating-html-tables in keeping other pages): http://datapatterns.org/liberating-html-tables.html

Re including images: I think you have worked this out! However, the I do note there were typos in your image references which I have corrected.

Re size of pull request: this is great!
