From: "Klaus Staedtler" <staedtler-przyborskiatweb.de> 

JAlbum 2.5 has been released

JAlbum is a tool to help you getting your photos on the web

JAlbum runs on all major operating systems (Windows, Unix, Linux and Mac
OS X). On the JAlbum download page you will find installers for your
operating system. JAlbum is a 100% Java program and requires the Java
Runtime 1.3 to be installed.

Release history

2002-10-24 2.5
News:

    * FTP upload support Added with \"smart upload\" that attempts to only
upload changed files. Although this is not the central task of JAlbum,
I\'ve added it for convenience 

Bug fixes:

    * Printing all variables with a <%= current %> expression within a
skin caused an infinite recursive loop
    * Didn\'t match a skin with it\'s available styles upon loading of a
project (introduced in 2.4.1) 

2002-10-23 2.4.1
News:

    * Skins can now contain layout hints if they are intended to be used
with a certain image size etc. Layout hints is simply a subset of a JAlbum
project file named hints.jap which resides in a skin directory 

Bug fix:

    * All EXIF variables were stored as String objects even if another
object type would have been more suitable (e.g. Boolean for camera flash
setting or Float for aperture value) 

2002-10-22 2.4
News:

    * Simplified scripting of skins with JSP/ASP like <% scriptlet syntax
%>, and implicit objects (out, album, application etc)
    * Even more web-friendly: Does a better job avoiding creation of
absolute links (file://C:...) even if original images point to other
locations in the file system than the output directory
    * Tries to skip erronous image files and resume operation instead of
halting. Will display an error log in case of errors
    * New ja:include element to allow simple page inclusion
    * New ja:ignore element to pass scriptlets to JSP/ASP engines for
processing
    * Improved ja:if element allowing arbitrary expressions to be tested
    * Style sheet files are now parsed in the same manner as template
files
    * Added new variables \"isoEquivalent\", \"currentRows\", and
\"indexImageCount\"
    * Two new skins, \"Colorful\" and \"Bluepro\" added 

There are also a number of cool new features that are simply implemented
as scripts inside the \"standard\" skin. To have these features on other
skins, just copy and paste the scriptlets inside the standard skin:

    * JAlbum now adds image comments from external text files carrying the
same base name as the image files themselves (unless an embedded comment
is already found)
    * Users can now pick desired background and text colors of an album by
simply selecting the AskUser.css skin
    * Put a header.inc or footer.inc file in the image directory and it\'s
contents will be included on the index page(s) 

Bug fixes:

    * Would stop with an \"ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException\" for images
containing an empty EXIF block
    * Minor fixes to skins 

Known bugs:

    * Line numbers are not always reported correctly for scripting errors
