tejocote Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Hi. I'm new in this things. What i need to do is play a power point slide show in a web site. the thing is that the web site owner doesn't know how to make a flash or whatever, but can do power point presentation. thanks for any help. Quote
TCH-Andy Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Welcome to the forums Depending on exactly what he wants, you can always get PowerPoint to save the files as html, which does much of a slide show for you. Quote
stevevan Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Welcome to the forums! I know in PP2003 you can save it as an HTML file or a presentation (pps). The PPS extension would require the user download a free powerpoint viewer, tho'. Quote
borfast Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 PowerPoint presentations can't be played in a webpage, as far as I know - they were never meant to. But perhaps Eric Meyer's S5 can help you. Quote
cajunman4life Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Welcome to the forums! And you can save your powerpoint presentation to HTML (which if I recall correctly basically creates a new page for each slide). Quote
jayson Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Welcome to the forums! And you can save your powerpoint presentation to HTML (which if I recall correctly basically creates a new page for each slide). Your right there Aaron, but you also have to realize that with PP or andy Micro$oft product, ( I once did my site in PP) it adds tons of line codes, I belive when I went back to HTML, my site (one page ) had over 1500 lines of code, it has the same coding as my HTML page (35 lines of code) and it is hard to do a quick edit, in PP as it is in HTML.

TCH-Andy Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 saving as html will give you all the jpg images though - that you can then code yourself into a screenshow Quote
cajunman4life Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Jayson, you raise a good point. Which is why I code my pages by hand. Quote
Deverill Posted January 16, 2006 Posted January 16, 2006 Just nosing around the net and I found an interesting product... Swishzone.com has a new flavor of the Swish product called Swish Presenter that will convert Powerpoint into Flash. May be worth checking. Quote
