Adding to website

I have a teacherweb website that allows people to upload html pages, documents, and images. I also have a 20 slide (PP 03) presentation with links to webpages, Word documents, video clips, and pdf files. What is the best way to get the slides on my website and have them link together? Should I save the individual slides or save the whole thing? And would I save it as a single file webpage, webpage, or just as a Power Point. When I tried to upload it to my Verizon online space, the links wouldn't work to anything. How does everyone do this all the time!!

This will help with getting your PPT presentation up on the web:

Put your PowerPoint-generated HTML on the web

Getting the links all to work is another problem.
Normally, they'll be "hardcoded" to point to files on your hard drive.
If you put the files in the same folder as you've already saved the PPT to and
then create the links, you'll generally get pathless links, and PPT appears to
preserve those when you publish to HTML.

That means that if you put the linked files in the same folder as the *main*
HTML file PPT has created (but not in the folder with the support files) it
may work after you publish the whole works to the web.

In other words, something like:

In: c:\myfiles\
Presentation.ppt
Somefile.PDF
SomeOtherFile.DOC

After you publish to html, you add to this folder
Presentation.htm
\Presentation_Files\wads and wads of files

Upload everything to the web server, and it should work.

Thank you so much. I'm impressed how quickly you got back to me.

You're very welcome. Timing ... well, that's luck of the draw; when you posted
vs when I saw and answered it. But with regulars literally all over the world,
questions here do tend to get answered fairly fast.

Let us know how you and your HTML get on. ;-)

You probably want to save your presentation to Web Page and then upload all of
the files and folders generated to your website. See the following:
