Hello forum,

I'm new here, because I need some help. I have a lot of jpeg from my work; they are filled with metadatas, I wrote under WindowsXP. To handle this now under Linux:

1. I want to create html-pages, each with one or two jpeg-pictures and with some of the included metadata-informations of those pictures. An exiftool-command  should do this automaticly for many jpegs in a folder.
2. In the next step I need a nice design for the created page.

I found out to write metadatas to html with
exiftool -h -T -p 'Dateiname: $FileName Aufnahmedatum: $DateCreated Raum: $Sub-location Blickrichtung: $City Feststellung: $LocalCaption   *************************'  "2010-"*.* > Metadaten.html

but I didn't found a way to combine a jpeg with its metadata-information under the picture at one html-page.

Any ideas how to do it?

Thanks

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

hello Phil,

ICAT could really solve my problem.
I'll give it a try
