Slide Show Interface
Wednesday, December 6th, 2006
The web team started getting requests to post pages of images. Maintaining photo galleries Flikr style seemed a bit odd for an education site. How usefully would a separate page of random images be for a prospective Mathematics student? However, I do understand that there are times where a single, static image is not enough. So I created a simple slide show interface.
The interface was created in Flash, and reads a simple XML file pointing to the images files and corresponding titles:
<slides>
<slideNode jpegURL="location01.jpg">title1.jpg</slideNode>
<slideNode jpegURL="location01.jpg">title1.jpg</slideNode>
...
</slides>
Here it is in action:
