How do I insert a ppt show on my home page to play automatically

I'm using FrontPage 2003. I have created a ppt 2003 show that I want to show
up in a little square on my home page and loop continuously. This should be
really easy, but I just can't figure out how to get it there.

Help, someone! Please!

It's not easy at all. First, you can't really drop a powerpoint presentation
just where you want it. You need to convert it into something that can be
viewed on the web. There are really two options, convert the presentation
into HTML, or convert it into Flash. HTML works ok, but can be cludgy and
you can run into situations where not all the effects and timing works.
Converting it into Flash is probably the best solution, but does require you
to use third-party software. My favorite application is Camtasia studio at
http://www.camtasia.com but there are others out there.

These are really the only options to have a powerpoint presentation on the
web since you really need to use some medium understood and used by web
browsers, of which powerpoint is not valid.

There are many free tools around to convert PP to Flash - this would be the
easiest way else people would need extra software (like the PPT viewer or
something to view it.
If you convert it to Flash and insert the flash file that would be eaiser.
