For general EXIF metadata, Drew Noakes' Java library is the best I've seen at delivering consistent data from all makes/mfrs of cameras (http://www.drewnoakes.com/code/exif/). You will need access to the server to install the library, though.
I haven't really tested it with Photoshop XMP metadata so I couldn't tell you what information it sends back. Also, you might be able to roll your own function library using Adobe's SDK: http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/xmp/sdk/ index.html HTH Jon On Sep 28, 2006, at 12:14 PM, Nick Tong - TalkWebSolutions.co.uk wrote: > Does anyone know how one can access meatdata from photos.
