3DML is a format for creating 3 dimensional websites. It was invented in 1996 by Michael Powers. The files are written in a kind of (non-valid) XML and can be shown with a browser plugin and independent 3DML browser called Flatland Rover. Unfortunately the latest version is from spring 2005, which is also why there is only a plugin for Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator and AOL, but not for Mozilla Firefox. An older version of the plugin is available for Opera: http://www. opera.

- 3DML is a format for creating 3 dimensional websites. It was invented in 1996 by Michael Powers. The files are written in a kind of (non-valid) XML and can be shown with a browser plugin and independent 3DML browser called Flatland Rover. Unfortunately the latest version is from spring 2005, which is also why there is only a plugin for Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator and AOL, but not for Mozilla Firefox. An older version of the plugin is available for Opera: http://www. opera. com/docs/plugins/. A 3DML world is called a "Spot". In the spot "blocks" can be inserted, laid out in a grid. The blocks can be ordered into "levels" - each has the same size. This approach was designed to simplify the building process and comprehension of 3D pages. The following is an example of a full Spot description of a 3D room with walls. <spot version="3.5"> <head> <debug /> <title name="Tall Spot" /> <blockset href="http://blocksets. flatland. com/flatsets/basic. bset"/> <map style="single" dimensions="(9,9,2)" /> <sky texture="images/clouds. gif" brightness="90%" /> <ground texture="images/dirt. gif" /> <ambient_light brightness="100%" /> <ambient_sound file="sounds/waves. wav" volume="65%" playback="looped"/> </head> <body> <level number="1"> ###... ### #....... # #....... # #....... # #....... # #....... # #....... # #....... # ######### </level> <level number="2"> ###---### #-------# #-------# #-------# #-------# #-------# #-------# #-------# ######### </level> <entrance location="(5,8,1)" name="default" angle="0,0" /> </body> </spot> You can navigate the spots by using either mouse or arrow keys.
