Figure 2

The file system diagram used by GeneXplorer. Programs within the GeneXplorer distribution assume a certain directory structure during dataset creation, and subsequently during display by the gx application. For dataset creation /html /explorer/ and /data/explorer directories are assumed and dataset specific directories are created under each one of them. For data display web accessible directories are required for reading general images (html/explorer/images/) and images used for a particular dataset (html/explorer/datasets), as well as for creating temporary images (html/tmp). A cgi-bin directory where the gx application itself will exist, and a directory in which the dataset files can be stored and read by the cgi application are also assumed.
