Historical Event Markup and Linking Project Description

Historical Event Markup and Linking project provides a means of coordinating and navigating disparate historical materials. Historical Event Markup and Linking project it's providing the user with means of coordinating and navigating disparate historical materials on the internet.It includes:- an XML schema for historical events which describes the events' participants, dates, location and keywords; the schema associates these with source materials in print or on the web.- XSLT stylesheets that combine conforming documents and generate lists, maps and graphical timelines out of them. Heml integrates these resources using the Cocoon2 web publishing engine.Here are some key features of "Historical Event Markup and Linking Project":· An RDF export of some recent Japanese history.· A timeline of Russia under Stalin (in Russian)· An xhtml document about Beethoven, with heml:Event tags added, producing a sidebar for historical navigation· An animated map of events pertaining to the study of the history of Greek medicine (currently requires Adobe SVG Plugin)· A dynamic map of the career of Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz· A table of events during the Meiji Restoration (in Japanese Unicode)Explore the menus above these to change their view, language, font, base map, calendar, etc. Alternatively, follow one of the 'Local Documents' links on the site sidebar to explore all the views on that document. Use the schema to create your own Heml documents, download the Heml webapp, and serve your material as timelines, maps and historical tables. The somewhat out-of-date Project Description introduces the ideas behind Heml and outlines the direction this project is heading. The fully documented XML schema is also available. You can use it to create your own Heml documents, download the Heml webapp, and serve your material as timelines, maps and historical tables.Requirements:· Apache Cocoon· Apache TomcatWhat's New in This Release:· This release updates XHTML and SVG to render properly in IE and Firefox 1.5.· It has a new map colour scheme.
