    Anybody know of an application that runs locally on your pc that scans a set of folders and subfolders (full of jpegs) and then generates an xml file for it, I have a nice piece of software for image galleries but it needs you to type in the images which is useless for a large number of directories, if I can find
    software that does this it will be worth it as the gallery is very nice indeed.

    Sounds like a pretty easy task to programme yourself as a personal project?

    I'd have to agree with John, this sounds like more of a "role your own" type of situation.

    Presumably the gallery software requires XML in a certain structure.
    Any software you get to produce a XML representation of a directory structure will more than likely produce XML specific to it's own needs and the odds of it matching what your image gallery needs are astronomical.

    Your best bet is to maybe have a go at doing your own.
    What image gallery are you using?
    I'd like to find a good one myself.

    (If I like it, I may write the code to do it :))
