Web export & contactsheet.xml

Michael Mährlein
Hello,
does anybody know how I can create a indexpage, which includes all subdirectories with webexports from capture one (5.2). I think that the information should exist in the "contactsheets.xml" file in the subdirectories. Can somebody give me a hint?
Best regards, Michael

    Michael,
    Not sure I understand what it is you're looking for.
    Also, can you verify the version you are using? Capture One 5.2 doesn't exist just yet.

    First of all - sorry it is Capture One version 5.1.
    Now I will specify what I'm looking for in a more precise way. When I export my pictures as a web contact sheet, I can select that I want to generate a XML file with additional data of the images. This file "contactsheet.xml" will be located together with "contactsheet.dtd" and the "index.html" file in the selected folder for exporting. In the subdir "photos" are the images and so on. I want to talk about this file "contactsheet.xml" and the corresponding "contactsheet.dtd" file. Do you know a tool, script or something else to use this information of the XML file? I'm thinking about a PHP-script in the upper directory which looks in all subdirectories (with exported images for web from CO) and generates an index for all these albums in the subdirectory. So I think that you have thought something, when you implemented the export with the XML file and the DTD file. In this I was interested in. How can I use these files with there information included efficiently for publishing in the web? I hope that's now clearer, and perhaps you can help me.
    Best regards, Michael

    Michael,
    I don't think that these files do what you are hoping they do. These files are really just generic files that are describing the structure of the files within the Contact Sheet. File name, location, dimensions, etc.
    The very nature of both the DTD and XML is to be generic descriptive files so that any (nearly any) program can identify the contents they relate to.
