[Webmaster]Displaying a large image
Displaying a large image in a web page is quite a trouble.
Zoomify is a small program that allows Flash to make an image zoomable and navigable,
You can download it for Windows and Macintosh (trial) your own zoomable images.

Getting started
- Start Zoomify and select the image to be processed.
- Wait for the end of treatment (which can be quite long).
- This will create a folder containing a file ImageProperties.xml and one or more subdirectories (TileGroup. ..)
- Copy zoomifyViewer.swf in the same directory as ImageProperties.xml
- Take Template.html file provided, copy it into the same directory as ImageProperties.xml and rename it to index.html
- Edit the index.html file and replace: zoomifyImagePath=http://www.zoomify.com/content/test/
by:
zoomifyImagePath=.
- Open the file index.html with your browser to test.
- If it works.
- You only have to send all these files (and subdirectories) on your website.
Note that you can adjust settings:
<OBJECT ... WIDTH="750" HEIGHT="450">
and <EMBED ...WIDTH="750" HEIGHT="450">
Or add
BGCOLOR=#000000 in 2 above tags to have a black background.
