3D Rendered image

[Zardooloi]

Does anyone know if it is possible to use DHTML to post 3D models to a website (to allow a visitor to move and view the model)?

Thanks:)

Nope. Not gonna happen.

Look into "Quicktime VR" (google that).
It's quicktime Virtual Reality, and allows you, through quicktime player (can be embedded in a page) to rotate things.

You might possibly be able to use java, but that would be hard.


The only other way would be to create a series of images, then program them with javascript to "rotate" (change the image) based on clicking an arrow, or something, but that would be very tedious, depending on the number of angles you wanted available.

It's almost possible now. Check this out: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11820

And, Yes, for most Flash/3D work you need a program like Swift3D, but not always:

Have a look at VRML/X3D (http://www.web3d.org/).
