Save as Web question

[Trevor Lawrence]

I have only recently started using PPT (2002) and I noticed the menu entry
"Save To Web Page ..."

I managed to do this OK although I had to specify charset=utf-8 to avoid
non-displayable characters
It generates a framed website page with 2 columns
Left hand column Slide number
Right hand column Slide content

Clicking on a slide number will display that page, but there are no titles
to guide one as to what the slide content is in advance.

From what I can glean, the left hand column is outline.html and each slide
number has this code

<tr onmouseover="Over(this)" onmouseout="Out(this)" onclick="Follow(this)"
style='cursor:hand'>
<td align=right valign=top>
<div class=sldNum><font size=2>1</font></div>
</td>
<td width="100%">
<div id=PPTP1 class=PTxt><font size=2>
<a href="javascript:GoToSld('slide0310.html');" id=PPTL1>
<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'>Â </span></a></font></div>
</td>
</tr>

I am not sure why the characters 'Â ' (Â followed by blank) appear in the
span tag, but I can change each occurrence manually to a slide title

Is there an easier way?

I found this in Help by typing "web slide titles'
Create a table of contents slide that links to custom shows

But this looks complex and I am not sure that this is what I need to do.

That would be because there's no text in the Slide Title placeholders on
your
slides (ie, no text shows up next to the slide icons in the Outline view).
If you add slide titles, they'll appear in the pane on the left in the web
page
view.

Thanks for that.

When I had figured out how to bring up the Slide Title view, I added the
titles, but they also appear on the slide, so I had to do a bit of moving
and formatting to get the slide to look the same as before. Invisible titles
might not be a bad idea. Actually, I did some of these by using black text
on a black blackground (or white on white) but of course this only works
where there is blank space to do it.

Now that I know how to use titles, it seems strange to me that the template
which I worked from did not have titles. It was a template (made by someone
else) for use in creating a new slide show every week for a church service.
Oh well, on the weeks when I do it, there will be titles.
