Create a photo album as a website and deploy files used for an autorun CD-ROM on Windows (yes, I know, it's very very old thing).
This code repository contains a project developed in Object Pascal language under Delphi. You don't know what Delphi is and where to download it ? You'll learn more on this web site.
This is a Delphi VCL project for Windows.
It was created in 08/1999 to share photo albums on CD-ROM and web sites. This release is from 07/2002.
It was inspired by Arles Images Web Page Creator from Digital Dutch.
- /src contains a Delphi VCL project (Delphi 6 realse for 2002/07 release and now Delphi 11.2 Alexandria)
- /deploy-with-exe contains files and folder needed by the program to generate a photo album. They must be in the same folder than your EXE file.
/deploy_with_exe/mdl folder contains the HTML pages used for the website (with .MDL extension). Replace them with the 4 template pages of your website.
In each file we have tags for the template engine of the program.
- index.mdl is the template for index page of the album
- browser.mdl is the template for the contact sheet ("planche contact" in french) where all pictures are displayed as thumbs
- photo.mdl is the template for each picture page
- credit.mdl is the template for credit page
They are available in all page templates.
- !$titre$! is replaced by the website title
- !$photographe$! is replaced by the photographers name
- !$commentateur$! is replaced by the editors name
- !$commentaire_accueil$! is replaced by "home comment". Its preferred place is in index.mdl page.
This is available everywhere but preferred in the browser.mdl template page.
- !$liste_photo$! ... !$/liste_photo$! is a loop in the pictures list
- !$nom_page$! is replaced by the picture page name (to use in A tags to link to the detailed picture page)
They are available in pictures list and the detailed picture page.
- !$nom_photo$! is replaced by the picture filename (to use in IMG tags as "img/!$nom_photo$!" SRC attribute)
- !$photo_larg$! is replaced by the picture width
- !$photo_haut$! is replaced by the picture height
- !$photo_larg_red$! is replaced by the picture thumb width
- !$photo_haut_red$! is replaced by the picture thumb height
- !$nom_page_premiere$! is replaced by the name of the first picture page of the album
- !$nom_page_precedente$! is replaced by previous picture page (in photo.mdl template page)
- !$nom_page_suivante$! is replaced by next picture page (in photo.mdl template page)
- !$nom_page_derniere$! is replaced by the name of the last picture page of the album
They are available in all page templates.
They are used in original HTML 3 templates pages. Of course they don't have to be in your HTML 5 templates if you use CSS for styling the photo album.
- !$coul_fond$! is replaced by background color
- !$coul_texte$! is replaced by text color
