XIOview is a Java-Applet for displaying and zooming images on websites. Its intuitive usability, seamless integrability, and superior functionality make it a "best fit"-solution for many projects.
The applet loads and automatically scales any GIF or JPG still image. Zooming is performed by simply clicking on the applet`s area, and the whole image can be explored by moving the mouse. The zoom magnification can instantly be modified.
Additionally, XIOview provides useful image filtering capabilities (e.g. gamma-correction) as well as support for direct modification of all its options at runtime using simple JavaScript-commands.
ADVANTAGES:
* 1-click image zoom: extremely easy & intuitive user interface
* adds interactivity to your site, increasing visitors` attention and interest in your content
* saves much screen space for large images without reducing image size and detail
* reduces "image-theft", because the displayed image cannot be easily copied
* many powerful options
* high functional flexibility; can be adapted to fit almost any design
* very small file-size and cross-platform compatibility
FEATURES:
