Embed Powerpoint slideshow on webpage...

    Hi guys.

    Working on a project for a client at the moment. It involves various elements on an HTML table, like a flash ticker along the bottom and scrolling news feeds on the right, etc.

    The main "window" is a space for various powerpoint slides. There is a reason why it can't be flash (I know that would be so much easier).

    I've published the PPT slideshow for web etc, but it creates a page with Frames and I'm finding it hard to seperate the lot into something that can just be inserted into it's "window" on this HTML table.

    any ideas? Google is failing me today...

    Thanks alot

    I'll assume as it can't be a flash presentation that it also cannot be a javascript/vbscript adapted page. If I'm wrong shout me back and I can give you some pointers on creating a webpage that acts as a powerpoint slideshow (as opposed to a webpage containing a powerpoint slideshow).

    I googled what you're looking for and came up with this link:

    and:

    Hope they are helpful

    What I'm creating is a sort of Framework of different elements that people with no knowledge other than Powerpoint can use (at least one person in a office hopefully...)

    The various elements, like the flash ticker etc have external text or XML files that can be edited in notepad or whatever.

    It's digital signage, basically.... but easy to use....

    <_<

    + you can convert your powerpoint presentation to flash or animated GIF
    & then embed it to your webpage
    http://www.geovid.com/Presentation_to_Video_Converter/

    that can be a solution

    Thanks Caser, but it must be for people who can't use flash or HTML.

    Plus all those converters leave nasty watermark logos unless you buy the full product (which I wouldn't expect my clients to do ;) )

    The iFrame has sorted it though :)
