The Opera Show Format (OSF) is a set of conventions used in a web page using XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS 2.1.[1][2] It is designed to allow presentations to be easily created with web authoring tools.[3][4][5] OSF requires that a number of meta tags be present, including version, generator, author, and presdate (the creation or presentation date). The entire presentation, including all slides and images (in data: URIs) is contained in a single file. The look of all slides is controlled by the layout section, contained in a <div class="layout"> HTML element. The slides themselves are contained in a presentation section contained in a <div class="presentation"> element. Each slide is contained in a <div class="slide"> element.
The Slide Show (S9) Ruby gem creates OSF-compatible presentations using a wiki-style markup language.[6] Other tools include the Windows-based QuickShow,[7] and the Project Velt[8] Opera widget. Opera Software once provided an online OSF generator,[9] which has since gone offline. An older version is available at the personal site of Opera Software's CTO, Håkon Wium Lie.[10]
