Image names end with '_l' and '_r' .
Defining the Applet
First, decide if you want an embedded display frame :-
<APPLET codebase="./" code="je3dview.class" archive="je3dview.jar" width="800" height="350" alt="A Java2 browser required !">
or a popup window :-
<APPLET codebase="./" code="fej3dmain.class" archive="fej3dmain.jar" width="500" height="350" alt="A Java2 browser required !">
If you are using a popup window, define its size if not 800x600 pixels :-
<PARAM NAME="fwidth" VALUE="900">
<PARAM NAME="fheight" VALUE="700">
If you will be displaying more than one image, define the text-file listing the images (if not the default 'filelste.txt'):-
<PARAM NAME="filelist" VALUE="imglist.txt">
Define name of the single image or the starting image for a multi-image slideshow (if not first image) :-
<PARAM NAME="imgfile" VALUE="st07.jpg">
If a popup slideshow is to be initiated from a single, custom button (image) or from a composite thumbnail of all the images, define it :-
<PARAM NAME="thumbnail" VALUE="st05_thumb.jpg">
If a composite thumbnail has been used, define the number of rows and columns :-
<PARAM NAME="thumbx" VALUE="3">
<PARAM NAME="thumby" VALUE="4">
Finally, define the following parameters if the defaults are not acceptable :-
<PARAM NAME="slideshow" VALUE="9"> // 9 seconds slideshow interval.
<PARAM NAME="menu" VALUE="0"> // Hide the menu-bar.
<PARAM NAME="zoom" VALUE="100"> // Display image at its native size.
<PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="14"> // Page-flipping with shutter-glasses (quad-buffered OpenGL stereo)
<PARAM NAME="swap" VALUE="1"> // swap left/right images.
Example Applets
<APPLET codebase="./" code="fej3dmain.class" ....>
</APPLET>
The simplest possible applet with no user-defined parameters,
Class-file 'fej3dmain.class' is used for this window option.
A window 800x600 with menu-bar pops-up, displaying the first image listed in 'filelste.txt' in side-by-side format.
The 'Start' button size is that defined by the applet's width and height values.
The opening and closing <APPLET> tags for popup mode will not be shown in most of the following examples.
<PARAM NAME="filelist" VALUE="imglist.txt">
A window 800x600 with menu-bar pops-up, displaying the first image listed in 'imglist.txt' in side-by-side format.
The first entry in 'imglist.txt' is the text for the button.
If you use the default 'filelste.txt' for your list of images, the above parameter is not required.
<PARAM NAME="imgfile" VALUE="first_image.jpg">
<PARAM NAME="thumbnail" VALUE="linkmutu.gif">
<PARAM NAME="filelist" VALUE="imglist.txt">
A custom button 'linkmutu.gif' is displayed instead of the default button.
