Xiss web (Xiss for XML Interactive Slide Show) is a Java™ (external link) tool based on W3C (external link) standards (XML, XSLT, HTML/XHTML, CSS) that builds HTML pages for web slide shows.
Xiss web comprises:
* 2 XML languages: contents description and presentation layout,
* a sower: generates or update XML descriptions from images organized in directories;
* a reverser: gets image comments in existing HTML files to complete XML descriptions (eg. from an existing web site);
* a builder: builds off line HTML files with XML descriptions;
* 3 libraries:
o file for processing along a hierarchy of directories exploration,
o Swing worker for controlling long process and,
o preferences manager using only file as a persistent storage.
One of the main characteristics of the generated slide show is to have thumbnails always visible when browsing images.
Xiss web can manage together your HTML pages and slide show. Xiss web is designed to generate pages for slide show and not to generate an entire web site.
