The most imortant aspects of pvindex.tcl
can be controlled through command line args and by providing template html
files. We will discuss the template html files in this section.
pvindex.tcl will use the following files
as templates if they exist in the current working directory. Additionally,
if you are using pvindex.tcl in recursive mode, it will allow any of these
files in sub-directories to override the ones in the current working directory.
See the note in the todo section about limitations of the override mechanism.
The files that can effect the operation
of pvindex.tcl:
| pvindex.html |
This file is used as a template for the
thumbnail view of the images |
| pvempty.html |
This file is used as the blank page that
is part of the initial frame layout if you are using frames |
| pvimage.html |
This file is used as a template for the
page used to embed the full-size images |
In the absense of any of these files, pvindex.tcl
will use the simple html it has embedded in it to generate the output.
This might not give you the results you want.
Each file has a number of text strings
that are used for substitutions by pvindex.tcl.
 pvindex.html |
|
| pvTitle |
substituted with the title of the page...
usually the directory's tail |
| pvDir |
substituted with the directory name...
usually the directory's tail |
| pvDirs |
substituted with the list of directories
in this directory... will also include the parent directory... will also
use thumbnails for the directory if it contains images |
| pvTable |
substituted with the thumbnails for the
images in the directory |
| pvFooter |
substituted with a little note about when
and how the page was generated... not too ugly... you'll leave this in
if you're a nice person |
| pvempty.html |
|
| pvDir |
substituted with the name of the directory...
usually it's tail |
| pvimage.html |
|
| pvImg |
substituted with the full-size image to
be displayed |
