XIOview - Image Zoom Applet

XIOview - Image Zoom Applet

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
