Can I insert slideshow in web page?

[diveram]

Is it possible to insert a powerpoint slideshow into a web page created by frontpage? Not the whole screen, lets say thumb nail size. I saw this on a web site I was surfing and want to try it. I'm not sure if it was powerpoint, just guessing.

Thanks!

Yes. From within Frontpage choose "insert" and then File and then select your powerpoint

Ok.....so its that easy....

[diveram]

well, it didn't work....it said it cannot load file.

Did you upload the presentation file (___.ppt) to the server?

[diveram]

no, I tried to insert it into frontpage. Really not sure about it, I'll have to play with it some more. I'll post more tomorrow, bed time for me now! Thanks ALL!

Ok, I was able to insert a slide show as a link. Like ckick here to view - that kinda thing. What I really want is to have pictures change in the same place on a web page automatically. I think what I saw was flash. That is a bit over my head right now, so I think I have to give up unless someone knows a way to do what I want in frontpage.

Thanks again all!

Ahh. I understand what you want now...

Within Powerpoint you will want to SAVE AS WEBPAGE which will then create the required HTML file and supporting files folder which you will then upload to your webserver. This will cause the powerpoint to automatically open to the "first slide" and at the bottom of the first webpage/slide will be the button to make it do the slide show.

*Edit* Here is a quick little Powerpoint I created just to show you. I have the pages set to 5 secs between slides once you start the slideshow (http://65.100.204.164/xpc-pp-demo.htm) Hopefully this will help you. I didn't put any music to this one just a few slides

Enjoy

Thanks. I think that will do just fine!

You have to "import" the powerpoint files from the "File / import" command, then add it to your site. It should work, fine I have done it a few hundred times.. Quite easy..
