Controlling HTML presentations with another page.

[Guest]

Hello.

I'd like to be able to run an HTML exported slideshow in either a popup
window or an IFRAME and control it with JavaScripted buttons in the parent of
the popup/IFRAME. I want to be able to call the fullscreen.htm file so I
don't get the outline or menu.

Is this actually possible? If I have to hack the scripts.js file a little, I
don't mind.

I've tried just calling the DocumentOnClick() , GoToNextSld() and
GoToSldNum() functions, but they either just cause the window to go blank, or
just fall over with "Object doesn't support this property or method"

Inserting another function that just pops up an alert into scripts.js can be
called successfully, so I know the function is being called, it's just not
executing as expected.

Any help would be most welcome.

Take a look at: http://www.rdpslides.com/pptfaq/#WEBifying and see if
something there might help.

Do you need support for animation or would static slide images do the job for
you? If the latter, have a look at our PPT2HTML add-in at
http://ppt2html.pptools.com

It'd generate pages that you could "wrap" in your own frame and control by
script w/o too much trouble, I'm fairly sure. The demo's fully functional, so
you could give it a thorough workout for free.
