Using Power Point in HTML Page

Dear Forum,

I have a project which includes several power point files. I don't want to create a hyper link where users will be able to download the power point file.

I want to let them view it in internet explorer instead of requesting the users to open it or save it?

Is there a way to let users view the power point file in the browser?

Are they any tools or codes that make Power Point to be accessible and viewable in the browser?

Well there are 2 ways.

1. Post a link for users to download powerpoint viewer from microsoft (or host the file yourself). It includes a web based plugin so ppt files will display in the web browser. However, this is bad for blind accessibility.

2. Save the ppt presentation as an HTML site.

Here's some good reading material for you on the subject:
