Working with Online Presentations

Once a presentation is saved as a web page, it is viewed through a web browser. Depending on the browser that you use, there will be some differences in viewing the presentation.

return to topOpening the Presentation in a Browser

After you have saved your presentation as a web page, you must then open it in a browser.

NOTE: Internet Explorer is recommended as the browser of choice since Netscape may not be able to show your online presentation properly. Since you created the online presentation in a Microsoft application (PowerPoint), viewing it in another Microsoft application (Internet Explorer) would provide the highest compatibility.

  1. Open Internet Explorer
    OR
    Open Netscape

  2. From the File menu, select Open File...

  3. In the Go to text box, type the desired file location
    OR
    Navigate to and select the desired file

    Your online presentation appears in the browser.
