Roxen WebServer
features an advanced graphics engine. Together with output from a
database and/or data from the live server the graphics engine can
present information that makes a site feel alive. The graphics engine
can be set up to automatically generate very nice-looking headers,
diagrams, buttons, thumbnails and many other web graphics :
- Images
-
Through <cimg> images can be transformed and
converted to any of the almost 20 image-formats available.
- Business Graphics
-
Generate online reports dynamically with <diagram>, represented as line, bar, pie charts and many other diagrams.
- Graphical Headers
-
Roxen WebServer supports many font-formats and makes it easy to
import them. By combining fonts with images and graphical effects
very eyecatching headers can be made. For instance, it is possible
to set the ordinary HTML-tag <h1> to output a graphical
header instead of ordinary boring headers. Graphical headers can be
made with <gtext> and <gh>.
Good looking graphics are an important part of the layout of web
pages. Creating graphics can also be very demanding of the site's
hardware, especially if it involves transforming, converting and
rendering of a lot of images or graphics. It is also important to not
overdo the website's layout else people with slow connections will
not be able to enjoy it since it will take forever to download
it.
File Formats
Some of the tags take images as attributes. For example, to use as
a background. The images can be of most formats including GIF, JPEG,
PSD and PNG.
