picfolio -- an image gallery generator
To add to my previous (a couple weeks ago) response to a question about
programs that might generate thumbnail-sized images and html galleries
from directories of images, there is a great program called picfolio
that does not appear within the FreeBSD ports collection, but which
works great on FreeBSD.
Picfolio outputs xml files that are transformed by xslt stylesheets to
produce (typically) HTML or XHTML documents. A picfolio user who learns
xslt can write his or her own stylesheets to precisely control and
customize picfolio's xml output (into strict XHTML 1.1 and CSS2, for
example). In this respect, picfolio is a much better choice than many
of the other "web gallery" generators which often produce a very
particular, mostly unconfigurable form of HTML (which may not be very
well written, or might be older HTML which includes deprecated tags,
for example).
Picfolio's webpage is at:
