Editing Contigs Browser

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows of an easy web browser application/code that I could use to show small contigs/alignments (few Kb) and ideally allow editing, modifying the original file (or a copy).

Thanks.

"modifying the original" you meant the image ?

You could just encode your contigs as XML and transform it with XSLT to produce a SVG file. See that example with the UCSC data (2006) : http://plindenbaum.blogspot.fr/2006/02/ucsc-genome-browser-svg.html

By modifying the original I mean editing the alignment and changing the original file (fasta, phyllip...) if the user deletes an indel or moves a nucleotide.

If you are familiar with Gbrowse, you can use Jbrowse and you can embed in your webpage.
