autostart powerpoint presentation

[allenbunchmom]

I opened my powerpoint presentation did save as web page, changed save type
to ppt. Then save. Added a link on web page to direct it to the
presentation. When the link is clicked it opens a pop up box that says
open/run, save, cancel. I don't want that I want it to automatically open so
if someone doesn't have powerpoint it can just open. In other words I want
it to autostart. I am new at posting powerpoint on the web so I will need
step by step instructions please.

I went to Michael Koerner's tutorial and found this:
Open the Outline.htm
Locate the Load function which looks as follows...

function Load()
{
if( IsWin("PPTOtl" ) ){ LoadOtl(); parent.gOtlLoaded=true; return }
if( IsWin("PPTNav" ) ){ LoadNav("NavObj",UpdNav); parent.gNavLoaded=true;
return }
if( IsWin("PPTOtlNav" ) ){ LoadNav("OtlNavObj",UpdOtlNav);
parent.gOtlNavLoaded=true;
return }

Just add another line at the bottom - FullScreen();


..i.e the new Load function will look as follows

function Load()
{
if( IsWin("PPTOtl" ) ){ LoadOtl(); parent.gOtlLoaded=true; return }
if( IsWin("PPTNav" ) ){ LoadNav("NavObj",UpdNav); parent.gNavLoaded=true;
return }
if( IsWin("PPTOtlNav" ) ){ LoadNav("OtlNavObj",UpdOtlNav);
parent.gOtlNavLoaded=true;
FullScreen();
return }

but I don't have this in either my script or outline.

Thanks

If you want people w/o PPT to be able to view your presentation, you don't want
to save it as a PPT. Save as HTML instead.

Have a look at the pages under this heading:
