Hello There

reveal.js enables you to create beautiful interactive slide decks using HTML. This presentation will show you examples of what it can do.

Vertical Slides

Slides can be nested inside of each other.

Use the Space key to navigate through all slides.

Basement Level 1

Nested slides are useful for adding additional detail underneath a high level horizontal slide.

Basement Level 2

That's it, time to go back up.

Not a coder? Not a problem. There's a fully-featured visual editor for authoring these, try it out at https://slides.com .

Pretty Code

Fragment Styles

There's different types of fragments, like:

fade-right, up, down, left

fade-in-then-out

fade-in-then-semi-out

Highlight red blue green

Transition Styles

You can select from different transitions, like: None - Fade - Slide - Convex - Concave - Zoom

Slide Backgrounds

Set data-background="#dddddd" on a slide to change the background color. All CSS color formats are supported.

Image Backgrounds

Tiled backgrounds, video backgrounds, ... and gifs, background transitions.

Different background transitions are available via the backgroundTransition option. This one's called "zoom".

You can override background transitions per-slide.

Iframe Backgrounds

Since reveal.js runs on the web, you can easily embed other web content. Try interacting with the page in the background.

Marvelous List

• No order here

Fantastic Ordered List

• One is smaller than...
• Two is smaller than...

Tabular Tables

Clever Quotes

These guys come in two forms, inline: The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from and block:

“For years there has been a theory that millions of monkeys typing at random on millions of typewriters would reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. The Internet has proven this theory to be untrue.”

Intergalactic Interconnections

You can link between slides internally, like this .

Speaker View

There's a speaker view . It includes a timer, preview of the upcoming slide as well as your speaker notes.

Press the S key to try it out.

Export to PDF

Presentations can be exported to PDF , here's an example:

Global State

Set data-state="something" on a slide and "something" will be added as a class to the document element when the slide is open. This lets you apply broader style changes, like switching the page background.

State Events

Additionally custom events can be triggered on a per slide basis by binding to the data-state name.

Take a Moment

Press B or . on your keyboard to pause the presentation. This is helpful when you're on stage and want to take distracting slides off the screen.

• Right-to-left support
• Extensive JavaScript API
• Auto-progression
• Parallax backgrounds
• Custom keyboard bindings

HTML BASICS Slides Presentation

Click to access all Slides..

This slide presentation shows basics of HTML.

HTML and XHTML are the foundation of all web development. HTML is used as the graphical user interface in client-side programs written in JavaScript. Server-side languages like PHP and Java also receive data from web pages and use HTML as the output mechanism. The emerging Ajax technologies likewise use HTML and XHTML as their visual engine. HTML was once a very loosely-defined language with very little standardization, but as it has become more important, the need for standards has become more apparent. Regardless of whether you choose to write HTML or XHTML, understanding the current standards will help you provide a solid foundation that will simplify all your other web coding. Fortunately HTML and XHTML are actually simpler than they used to be, because much of the functionality has moved to CSS.

Common Elements

Every page (HTML or XHTML shares certain elements in common.) All are essentially plain text files, with the .html extension. HTML files should not be created with a word processor, but in some type of editor that creates plain text. Every page has a large container (HTML or XHTML) and two major subcontainers, the head and the body. The head area contains information useful behind the scenes, such as CSS formatting instructions and JavaScript code. The body contains the part of the page that is visible to the user.

Tags and Attributes

An HTML document is based on the notion of tags. A tag is a piece of text inside angle brackets (<>). Tags typically have a beginning and an end, and usually contain some sort of text inside them. For example, a paragraph is normally denoted like this:

The <p> indicates the beginning of a paragraph. Text is then placed inside the tag, and the end of the paragraph is denoted by an end tag, which is similar to the start tag but with a slash (</p>.) It is common to indent content in a multi-line tag, but it is also legal to place tags on the same line:

Tags are sometimes enhanced by attributes, which are name value pairs that modify the tag. For example, the tag (used to embed an image into a page) usually includes the following attributes:

The src attribute describes where the image file can be found, and the alt attribute describes alternate text that is displayed if the image is unavailable.

Nested tags

Tags can be (and frequently are) nested inside each other. Tags cannot overlap, so <a><b></a></b> is not legal, but <a><b></b></a> is fine.

HTML VS XHTML

HTML has been around for some time. While it has done its job admirably, that job has expanded far more than anybody expected. Early HTML had very limited layout support. Browser manufacturers added many competing standards and web developers came up with clever workarounds, but the result is a lack of standards and frustration for web developers. The latest web standards (XHTML and the emerging HTML 5.0 standard) go back to the original purpose of HTML: to describe the structure of the data only, and leave all formatting to CSS (Please see the DZone CSS Refcard Series). XHTML is nothing more than HTML code conforming to the stricter standards of XML. The same style guidelines are appropriate whether you write in HTML or XHTML (but they tend to be enforced in XHTML):

Most of the requirements of XHTML turn out to be good practice whether you write HTML or XHTML. I recommend using XHTML strict so you can validate your code and know it follows the strictest standards.

XHTML has a number of flavors. The strict type is recommended, as it is the most up-to-date standard which will produce the most predictable results. You can also use a transitional type (which allows deprecated HTML tags) and a frameset type, which allows you to add frames. For most applications, the strict type is preferred.

HTML Template

The following code can be copied and pasted to form the foundation of a basic web page:

The structure of your web pages is critical to the success of programs based on those pages, so use a validating tool to ensure you haven't missed anything

USEFUL OPEN SOURCE TOOLS

Some of the best tools for web development are available through the open source community at no cost at all. Consider these application as part of your HTML toolkit:

PAGE STRUCTURE ELEMENTS

The following elements are part of every web page.

KEY STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS

Most pages contain the following key structural elements:

LISTS AND DATA

Web pages frequently incorporate structured data so HTML includes several useful list and table tag

Standard List Types

HTML supports three primary list types. Ordered lists and unordered lists are the primary list types. By default, ordered lists use numeric identifiers, and unordered lists use bullets.

However, you can use the list-style-type CSS attribute to change the list marker to one of several types.

Lists can be nested inside each other

Definition lists

The special definition list is used for name / value pairs. The definition term (dt) is a word or phrase that is used as the list marker, and the definition data is normally a paragraph:

Use of tables

Tables were used in the past to overcome the page-layout shortcomings of HTML. That use is now deprecated in favor of CSS-based layout. Use tables only as they were intended, to display tabular data.

A table mainly consists of a series of table rows (tr.) Each table row consists of a number of table data (td) elements. The table heading (th) element can be used to indicate a table cell should be marked as a heading.

The rowspan and colspan attributes can be used to make a cell span more than one row or column.

Each row of a table should have the same number of columns, and each column should have the same number of rows. Use of the span attribute may require adjustment to other rows or columns.

LINKS AND IMAGES

Links and images are both used to incorporate external resources into a page. Both are reliant on URIs (Universal Resource Indicators), commonly referred to as URLs or addresses.

<a> (anchor) The anchor tag is used to provide the basic web link:

In this example, http://www.example.com is the site to be visited. The text "link to example.com" will be highlighted as a link.

absolute and relative references

<link>

The link tag is used primarily to pull in external CSS files:

<img>

The img tag is used in to attach an image. Valid formats are .jpg, .png, and .gif. An image should always be accompanied by an alt attribute describing the contents of the image.

Image formatting attributes (height, width, and align) are deprecated in favour of CSS.

SPECIALTY MARKUP

HTML / XHTML includes several specialty tags. These are used to describe special purpose text. They have default styling, but of course the styles can be modified with CSS.

<quote>

The quote tag is intended to display a single line quote:

Quote is an inline tag. If you need a block level quote, use <blockquote>.

<pre>

The <pre> tag is used for pre-formatted text. It is sometimes used for code listings or ASCII art because it preserves carriage returns. Pre-formatted text is usually displayed in a fixed-width font.

<code>

The code format is used to manage pre-formatted text, especially code listings. It is very similar to pre.

<blockquote>

This tag is used to mark multi-line quotes. Frequently it is set off with special fonts and indentation through CSS. It is a block-level tag.

<span>

The span tag is a vanilla inline tag. It has no particular formatting of its own. It is intended to be used with a class or ID when you want to apply style to an inline chunk of code.

The em tag is used for standard emphasis. By default, <em> italicizes text, but you can use CSS to make any other type of emphasis you wish.

<strong>

This tag represents strong emphasis. By default, it is bold, but you can modify the formatting with CSS.

Forms are the standard user input mechanism in HTML / XHTML. You will need another language like JavaScript or PHP to read the contents of the form elements and act upon them.

Form Structure

A number of tags are used to describe the structure of the form. Begin by looking over a basic form:

The <form></form> pair describes the form. In XHTML strict, you must indicate the form's action property. This is typically the server-side program that will read the form. If there is no such program, you can set the action to null ("") The method attribute is used to determine whether the data is sent through the get or post mechanism.

Most form elements are inline tags, and must be encased in a block element. The fieldset is designed exactly for this purpose. Its default appearance draws a box around the form. You can have multiple fieldsets inside a single form.

You can add a legend inside a fieldset. This describes the purpose of the fieldset.

A label is a special inline element that describes a particular field. A label can be paired with an input element by putting that element's ID in the label's for attribute.

The input element is a general purpose inline element. It is meant to be used inside a form, and it is the basis for several types of more specific input. The subtype is indicated by the type attribute. Input elements usually include an id attribute (used for CSS and JavaScript identification) and / or a name attribute (used in server-side programming.) The same element can have both a name and an id.

This element allows a single line of text input:

Passwords display just like textboxes, except rather than showing the text as it is typed, an asterisk appears for each letter. Note that the data is not encoded in any meaningful way. Typing text into a password field is still entirely unsecure.

Radio Button

Radio buttons are used in a group. Only one element of a radio group can be selected at a time. Give all members of a radio group the same name value to indicate they are part of a group.

Attaching a label to a radio button means the user can activate the button by clicking on the corresponding label. For best results, use the selected attribute to force one radio button to be the default.

Checkboxes are much like radio buttons, but they are independent. Like radio buttons, they can be associated with a label.

Hidden fields hold data that is not visible to the user (although it is still visible in the code) It is primarily used to preserve state in server-side programs.

Note that the data is still not protected in any meaningful way.

Buttons are used to signal user input. Buttons can be created through the input tag:

This will create a button with the caption "launch the missiles." When the button is clicked, the page will attempt to run a JavaScript function called "launchMissiles()" Standard buttons are usually used with JavaScript code on the client. The same button can also be created with this alternate format:

This second form is preferred because buttons often require different CSS styles than other input elements. This second form also allows an <img> tag to be placed inside the button, making the image act as the button.

The reset button automatically resets all elements in its form to their default values. It doesn't require any other attributes.

Select / option

Drop-down lists can be created through the select / option mechanism. The select tag creates the overall structure, which is populated by option elements.

The select has an id (for client-side code) or name (for serverside code) identifier. It contains a number of options. Each option has a value which will be returned to the program. The text between <option> and </option> is the value displayed to the user. In some cases (as in this example) the value displayed to the user is not the same as the value used by programs.

Multiple Selections

You can also create a multi-line selection with the select and option tags:

DEPRECATED FORMATTING TAGS

Certain tags common in older forms of HTML are no longer recommended as CSS provides much better alternatives.

The font tag was used to set font color, family (typeface) and size. Numerous CSS attributes replace this capability with much more flexible alternatives. See the CSS refcard for details.

I (italics)

HTML code should indicate the level of emphasis rather than the particular stylistic implications. Italicizing should be done through CSS. The <em> tag represents emphasized text. It produces italic output unless the style is changed to something else. The <i> tag is no longer necessary and is not recommended. Add font-style: italic to the style of any element that should be italicized.

Like italics, boldfacing is considered a style consideration. Use the <strong> tag to denote any text that should be strongly emphasized. By default, this will result in boldfacing the enclosed text. You can add bold emphasis to any style with the font-weight: bold attribute in CSS.

DEPRECATED TECHNIQUES

In addition to the deprecated tags, there are also techniques which were once common in HTML that are no longer recommended.

Frames have been used as a layout mechanism and as a technique for keeping one part of the page static while dynamically loading other parts of the page in separate frames. Use of frames has proven to cause major usability problems. Layout is better handled through CSS techniques, and dynamic page generation is frequently performed through server-side manipulation or AJAX.

Table-based design

Before CSS became widespread, HTML did not have adequate page formatting support. Clever designers used tables to provide an adequate form of page layout. CSS provides a much more flexible and powerful form of layout than tables, and keeps the HTML code largely separated from the styling markup.

HTML ENTITIES

Sometimes you need to display a special character in a web page. HTML has a set of special characters for exactly this purpose. Each of these entities begins with the ampersand(&) followed by a code and a semicolon.

HTML 5 / CSS3 PREVIEW

New technologies are on the horizon. Firefox 3.5 now has support for significant new HTML 5 features, and CSS 3 is not far behind. While the following should still be considered experimental, they are likely to become very important tools in the next few years. Firefox 3.5, Safari 4 (and a few other recent browsers) support the following new features:

Audio and video tags

Finally the browsers have direct support for audio and video without plugin technology. These tags work much like the img tag.

The HTML 5 standard currently supports Ogg Theora video, Ogg Vorbis audio, and wav audio. The Ogg formats are opensource alternatives to proprietary formats, and plenty of free tools convert from more standard video formats to Ogg. The autoplay option causes the element to play automatically. The controls element places controls directly into the page.

The code between the beginning and ending tag will execute if the browser cannot process the audio or video tag. You can place alternate code here for embedding alternate versions (Flash, for example)

The canvas tag offers a region of the page that can be drawn upon (usually with Javascript.) This creates the possibility of real interactive graphics without requiring plugins like Flash.

This is actually a CSS improvement, but it's much needed. It allows you to define a font-face in CSS and include a ttf font file from the server. You can then use this font face in your ordinary CSS and use the downloaded font. If this becomes a standard, we will finally have access to reliable downloadable fonts on the web, which will usher in web typography at long last.

How To Build A Captivating Presentation Using HTML, CSS, & JavaScript

Building beautiful presentations is hard. Often you're stuck with Keynote or PowerPoint, and the templates are extremely limited and generic. Well not anymore.

Today, we're going to learn how to create a stunning and animated presentation using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

If you're a beginner to web development, don't fret! This tutorial will be easy enough to keep up with. So let's slide right into it!

We're going to be using an awesome framework called Reveal.js . It provides robust functionality for creating interesting and customizable presentations.

• Head over to the Reveal.js repository and clone the project (you can also fork this to your GitHub namespace).

• Change directories into your newly cloned folder and run npm install to download the package dependencies. Then run npm start to run the project.

The index.html file holds all of the markup for the slides. This is one of the downsides of using Reveal.js; all of the content will be placed inside this HTML file.

Built-In Themes

Reveal includes 11 built-in themes for you to choose from:

Changing The Theme

• Open index.html
• Change the CSS import to reflect the theme you want to use

The theme files are:

• solarized.css

Custom Themes

It's quite easy to create a custom theme. Today, I'll be using my custom theme from a presentation I gave called "How To Build Kick-Ass Website: An Introduction To Front-end Development."

Here is what my custom slides look like:

Creating A Custom Theme

• Open css/theme/src inside your IDE. This holds all of the Sass files ( .scss ) for each theme. These files will be transpiled to CSS using Grunt (a JavaScript task runner). If you prefer to write CSS, go ahead and just create the CSS file inside css/theme.
• Create a new  .scss file. I will call mine custom.scss . You may have to stop your localhost and run npm run build to transpile your Sass code to CSS.
• Inside the index.html file, change the CSS theme import in the <head> tag to use the name of the newly created stylesheet. The extension will be  .css , not  .scss .
• Next, I created variables for all of the different styles I wanted to use. You can find custom fonts on Google Fonts. Once the font is downloaded, be sure to add the font URL's into the index.html file.

Here are the variables I chose to use:

• Title Font: Viga
• Content Font: Open Sans
• Code Font: Courier New
• Cursive Font: Great Vibes
• Yellow Color: #F9DC24
• Add a  .reveal class to the custom Sass file. This will wrap all of the styles to ensure our custom theme overrides any defaults. Then, add your custom styling!

Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I'll admit that I used quite a bit of  !important overrides in my CSS. This is horrible practice and I don't recommend it. The reveal.css file has extremely specific CSS styles, so I should have, if I had more time, gone back and ensured my class names were more specific so I could remove the  !importants .

Mixins & Settings

Reveal.js also comes with mixins and settings you can leverage in your custom theme.

To use the mixins and settings, just import the files into your custom theme:

Mixins You can use the vertical-gradient, horizontal-gradient, or radial-gradient mixins to create a neat visual effect.

All you have to do is pass in the required parameters (color value) and voila, you've got a gradient!

Settings In the settings file, you'll find useful variables like heading sizes, default fonts and colors, and more!

The structure for adding new content is:

.reveal > .slides > section

The <section> element represents one slide. Add as many sections as you need for your content.

Vertical Slides

To create vertical slides, simply nest sections.

Transitions

There are several different slide transitions for you to choose from:

To use them, add a data-transition="{name}" to the <section> which contains your slide data.

Fragments are great for highlighting specific pieces of information on your slide. Here is an example.

To use fragments, add a class="fragment {type-of-fragment}" to your element.

The types of fragments can be:

• fade-in-then-out
• fade-in-then-semi-out
• highlight-current-blue
• highlight-red
• highlight-green
• highlight-blue

You can additionally add indices to your elements to indicate in which order they should be highlighted or displayed. You can denote this using the data-fragment-index={index} attribute.

There are way more features to reveal.js which you can leverage to build a beautiful presentation, but these are the main things which got me started.

To learn more about how to format your slides, check out the reveal.js tutorial . All of the code for my presentation can be viewed on GitHub. Feel free to steal my theme!

I really love reveal.js. I haven't spoken in a while so I haven't used it. I've always used their themes and never thought about making my own. This is probably super useful for company presentations, too. I'm SO over google slides. Trying to format code in those is a nightmare LOL

The best thing in this - and now I'm not being ironic - is that while you work on a not so much technical task - creating a presentation - you still have to code. And the result is nice.

On the other hand, I know what my presentation skills teachers would say. Well, because they said it... :) If you really want to deliver a captivating presentation, don't use slides at all. Use the time to prepare what you want to say.

I'm not that good - yet, but taking their advice, if must I use few slides, with little information on them and with minimal graphical distractions. My goal is to impress them by what I say, not is what behind my head.

I'm going to a new training soon, where the first day we have to deliver a presentation supported by slides at a big auditorium and the next day we have to go back and forget about the slides and just get on stage and speak. I can't wait for it.

How about github.com/team-fluxion/slide-gazer ?

It's my fourth attempt at creating a simple presentation tool to help one present ideas quickly without having to spend time within a presentation editor like Microsoft PowerPoint. It directly converts markdown documents into elegant presentations with a few features and is still under development.

Yup, RevealJS is awesome !

Previously I either used PPT or Google Slides. One is a paid license and the other requires an internet connection.

The cool thing about it is that since it's just HTML files behind the scenes, the only software you need to view it with is a web browser. Has amazing syntax-highlighting support via PrismJS. And as a web developer, it makes it simple to integrate other npm packages if need be...

I actually just used it to present a talk this week!

Check out slides.com If you want to skip the heavy lifting and/or use a presentation platform based on reveal.js.

Everything is still easy to customize. The platform provides a UI to work from and an easy way to share your stuff.

BTW - I have no affiliation with slides.com, or even a current account. I used the service a few years back when I regularly presented and wanted to get over PowerPoint, Google Slides, Prezi, etc.

Google Slides Template

Frequently asked questions (faqs) about html5 presentation systems.

I have a lot of respect for Microsoft PowerPoint. It may be over-used and encourages people to create shocking slide shows, but it’s powerful and fun. I have just one criticism: all PowerPoint presentations look the same. It doesn’t matter how you change the colors, backgrounds, fonts or transitions — everyone can spot a PPT from a mile away. Fortunately, we now have another option: HTML5. Or, more specifically, HTML5 templates powered by JavaScript with CSS3 2D/3D transitions and animations. The benefits include:

• it’s quicker to add a few HTML tags than use a WYSIWYG interface
• you can update a presentation using a basic text editor on any device
• files can be hosted on the web; you need never lose a PPT again
• you can easily distribute a presentation without viewing software
• it’s not PowerPoint and your audience will be amazed by your technical prowess.
• you require web coding skills
• positioning, effects and transitions are more limited
• few systems offer slide notes (it’s a little awkward to show them separately)
• it’s more difficult to print handouts
• S5 — A Simple Standards-Based Slide Show System ( download )
• CSSS — CSS-based SlideShow System ( download )
• Slides ( download )
• HTML5Rocks (no direct downloads, but you can copy the source)

What are the key features to look for in an HTML5 presentation system?

When choosing an HTML5 presentation system, consider features such as ease of use, customization options, and compatibility with various devices. The system should have an intuitive interface that allows you to create presentations without any coding knowledge. Customization options are important for personalizing your presentation to match your brand or style. Additionally, the system should be compatible with different devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones, to ensure your audience can view your presentation without any issues.

How does HTML5 improve the presentation experience compared to traditional methods?

HTML5 enhances the presentation experience by offering interactive and dynamic content. Unlike traditional methods, HTML5 allows for the integration of multimedia elements like videos, audio, and animations directly into the presentation. This makes the presentation more engaging and interactive for the audience. Additionally, HTML5 presentations are web-based, meaning they can be accessed from any device with an internet connection, providing convenience and flexibility for both the presenter and the audience.

Are HTML5 presentations compatible with all browsers?

HTML5 presentations are generally compatible with all modern web browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge. However, there may be slight variations in how different browsers render HTML5 content. Therefore, it’s always a good idea to test your presentation on multiple browsers to ensure it displays correctly.

Can I use HTML5 presentation systems for professional purposes?

Yes, HTML5 presentation systems are suitable for a variety of professional purposes. They can be used for business presentations, educational lectures, product demonstrations, and more. The ability to incorporate multimedia elements and interactive features makes HTML5 presentations a powerful tool for conveying complex information in an engaging and understandable way.

How can I make my HTML5 presentation accessible to all users?

To make your HTML5 presentation accessible, ensure that all content is readable and navigable for users with different abilities. This includes providing alternative text for images, captions for videos, and using clear and simple language. Additionally, make sure your presentation is responsive, meaning it adjusts to fit different screen sizes and orientations.

Can I convert my existing PowerPoint presentations to HTML5?

Yes, many HTML5 presentation systems offer the ability to import and convert PowerPoint presentations. This allows you to leverage your existing content while benefiting from the enhanced features and capabilities of HTML5.

Do I need to know how to code to use HTML5 presentation systems?

While having some knowledge of HTML5 can be beneficial, many HTML5 presentation systems are designed to be user-friendly and do not require any coding skills. These systems often feature drag-and-drop interfaces and pre-designed templates to help you create professional-looking presentations with ease.

Can I share my HTML5 presentations online?

Yes, one of the major advantages of HTML5 presentations is that they can be easily shared online. You can publish your presentation on your website, share it via email, or even embed it in a blog post or social media update.

Are HTML5 presentations secure?

HTML5 presentations are as secure as any other web content. However, it’s important to follow best practices for web security, such as using secure hosting platforms and regularly updating your software to protect against potential vulnerabilities.

Can I track the performance of my HTML5 presentations?

Yes, many HTML5 presentation systems include analytics features that allow you to track viewer engagement and behavior. This can provide valuable insights into how your audience interacts with your presentation, helping you to improve and refine your content over time.

HTML Slidy: Slide Shows in HTML and XHTML

Dave Raggett , < [email protected] > Hit the space bar or swipe left for next slide

Slide Shows in HTML and XHTML

• You can now create accessible slide shows with ease
• Advance to next slide with mouse click, space bar or swipe left
• Move forward/backward between slides with Cursor Left, Cursor Right, Pg Up and Pg Dn keys, or swipe left or right
• Home key for first slide, End key for last slide
• The " C " key for an automatically generated table of contents, or click on "contents" on the toolbar or swipe up or down
• Function F11 to go full screen and back
• The " F " key toggles the display of the footer
• Try it now to see how to include notes for handouts (this is explained in the notes following this slide)
• use S and B keys for manual control (or < and >, or the - and + keys on the number pad
• Use CSS to set a relative font size on a given slide to make the content bigger or smaller than on other slides
• Switching off JavaScript reveals all slides
• Now move to next slide to see how it works

Copyright © 2005-2010 W3C ® ( MIT , ERCIM , Keio ), All Rights Reserved.

For handouts, its often useful to include extra notes using a div element with class="handout" following each slide, as in:

What you need to do

• Each presentation is a single XHTML file
• The div element will be created automatically for h1 elements that are direct children of the body element.
• Use regular markup within each slide
• The slide show style sheet: http://www.w3.org/Talks/Tools/Slidy2/styles/slidy.css
• The slide show script: http://www.w3.org/Talks/Tools/Slidy2/scripts/slidy.js
• Or you can link to the compressed version of the script which is about one seventh the size, see http://www.w3.org/Talks/Tools/Slidy2/scripts/slidy.js.gz
• If you are using XHTML, remember to use </script> and </style> as per Appendix C.3

To get the W3C Blue Style

The head element should include the following link to the style sheet:

The body element's content should start with the following markup:

This adds the logos on the top left and right corners of the slide.

You are of course welcome to create your own slide designs. You can provide different styles and backgrounds for different slides (more details later).

Use the meta element with name="copyright" for use in the slide show footer:

Upgrading from previous versions of Slidy

• This uses a new version of the HTML Slidy script
• Only adds one global name "w3c_slidy"
• Doesn't interfere with other scripts that set event handers such as onload on body element
• Works for slides delivered as text/html and application/xhtml+xml
• New presentation timer feature
• Initial prompt on first slide to help newcomers to Slidy
• Better support for styling slides and printing them
• See slidy.css , and w3c-blue.css
• But old presentations will work unchanged as they refer to the old script!

To use it off-line

• You can download slidy.zip and unzip it to create a Slidy directory on your machine
• If you have cvs access to the W3C site you can check out the Slidy directory
• Remember to periodically check for updates
• Use relative URIs depending on your local setup to access the appropriate files. Use the same directory structure as on the W3C server, ie, ".../2005/Talks/...".
• Run a Web server on your machine so that the directory above can be accessed via http://localhost/Talks/Tools/Slidy2 and use the URIs of the form "/Talks/Tools/Slidy2/styles/slidy.css", "/Talks/Tools/Slidy2/scripts/slidy.js".
• In both cases you can then publish your files on the W3C server unchanged.
• NOTE Internet Explorer on Windows XP now disables scripting for web pages loaded directly from the local file system, a work around is to use another browser, e.g. Firefox or Opera
• Please feel free to create your own designs, and help us to build a gallery of Slidy styles.
• My Google TechTalk (1st Feb 2006) uses a notebook themed style

Timing Your Presentation

• Sometimes it is handy to know just how much time you have to left to finish your presentation
• To get this feature, add the following markup to the content of the head element, replacing 5 by the duration of your presentation in minutes <meta name="duration" content="5" />
• The time left in minutes and seconds is shown in the footer next to the slide number
• The clock starts to run when you move away from the first slide
• Moving back to the first slide pauses the clock

Generate a Title Page

If you want a separate title page with the W3C blue style, the first slide should be as follows:

The w3c-blue.css style sheet looks for the classes "slide" and "cover" on div and img elements using the CSS selector div.slide.cover

This technique can be used to assign your slides to different classes with a different appearence for each such class.

Slidy also allows you to use different background markup for different slides, based upon shared class names, as in "foo" below. Backgrounds without additional class names are always shown except when the slide isn't transparent. You may need to tweak your custom style sheet.

Incremental display of slide contents

For incremental display, use class="incremental", for instance:

• First bullet point
• Second bullet point
• Third bullet point

which is marked up as follows:

An element is incrementally revealed if its parent element has class="incremental" or if itself has that attribute. Text nodes are not elements and are revealed when their parent element is revealed. You can use class="incremental" on any element except for <br />. Use class="non-incremental" to override the effect of setting the parent element's class to incremental.

Note: you will see a red asterisk on the left of the toolbar when there is still something more to reveal.

Create outline lists with hidden content

You can make your bullet points or numbered list items into outlines that you can expand or collapse

• The Slidy script will then treat the list as an outline list.
• Clicking on outline list items will expand/collapse block-level elements within that list item.
• Click on the above to make this list item collapse again.
• Users will then see expand/collapse icons as appropriate and may click anywhere on the list item to change its state. This particular list item can't be expanded or collapsed.
• By default Slidy hides all the block level elements within the outline list items unless you have specified class="expand".
• Such pre-expanded items can be collapsed by clicking on them.
• Microsoft says it will be supported by IE7 along with many fixes for other CSS woes in IE6.

Make your images scale with the browser window size

For adaptive layout, use percentage widths on images, together with CSS positioning:

• CSS positioning is simpler and more reliable than using tables

To work around a CSS rendering bug in IE relating to margins, you can set display:inline on floated elements.

Incremental display of layered images

These can be marked up using CSS relative positioning, e.g.

You should also use transparent GIF images to avoid the IE/Win bug for alpha channel in PNG. A fix is expected in IE 7. A work around is available on skyzyx.com. My thanks to ACID2 for the graphics.

How to center content vertically and horizontally

Within the div element for your slide:

and style it with the following:

The above styling is included in w3c-blue.css , which is designed to be used with slidy.css , but you are encouraged to develop your own style sheet with your own look and feel.

Include SVG Content

Inclusion of SVG content can be done using the object element, for example:

has been achieved by:

This ensures that the enclosed png is displayed when the browser has no plugin installed or can't display SVG directly. Providing such a fall back is very important! Don't forget the alt text for people who can't see the image.

However, there are caveats, see the next slide!

Caveats with SVG+object

Adobe has recently withdrawn support for its SVG Viewer, so you are recommended to consider alternatives . If you still using the Adobe SVG viewer you should be aware of bugs when using the it with IE, Namely:

• Most modern browsers generally support SVG SVG Tiny 1.1 or better natively without the need for a plugin
• If you need to use Internet Explorer you are advised to upgrade to IE9 which includes native support for SVG.
• Patches to Internet Explorer mean that the Adobe SVG Viewer version 3.03 no longer works with IE6. You are therefore recommended to uninstall version 3.03 and instead install Adobe SVG Viewer 6.0 preview if this is available to to you.
• IE6 makes a copy of the SVG file on the local disc when displaying it; but doesn't pass the original URI to the plugin
• As a result relative references from within the SVG to external resources (scripts, CSS, images, other SVG) will break.
• The work around is to use absolute references within your SVG.
• On Windows, the Adobe SVG plugin doesn't respect the CSS z-index property, and if used on backgrounds will always show through other content

Additional Remarks

• Slides are auto-numbered on the slide show footer
• It works out which slide you want and hides the rest
• You can even link between slides in the same slide show
• Previous versions of Slidy used square brackets, which will also work.
• Note that the browser's back/forward buttons may not work as you might expect due to browser problems.
• Adding "title" to the list of classes for div elements that serve as title pages will render the corresponding entry in the table of contents in bold italic text (press "C" now for an example)
• the following requests fonts to be one step smaller than the Slidy default for the current window width, and positive integers will make the fonts correspondingly larger
• Slidy uses JavaScript to dynamically set the font size on the body element, but it is okay to specify relative font changes on other elements within your own style sheet, e.g.
• You are encouraged to ensure your markup is valid. HTML Tidy can be used to find and correct common markup problems
• The slide show script and style sheet can be used freely under W3C's software licensing and document use policies
• At XTech2006 I gave this presentation on Slidy ( Paper ).

Localization and automatic translation

Slidy now includes support for localization

• The tool bar is localized according to the language of the presentation
• This is taken from the xml:lang or lang attributes on the html element
• The help file is selected based upon your browser's language preferences
• As of 29th July 2010, the languages supported are: English, Spanish, Catalonian, Czech, Dutch, German, Polish, French, Hungarian, Italian, Greek, Japanese, Chinese, Russian and Swedish
• If you would like to contribute localizations for other languages, please get in touch with Dave Raggett <[email protected]>
• The following illustrates what was used for Spanish

Note: Slidy now works with current slides translated into French . Use right mouse button to open frame without Google header. To disable automatic translation of the content of particular elements add class="notranslate" , see breaking the language barrier .

Future Plans

Recent additions have included a table of contents, and a way to hide and reveal content in the spirit of outline lists. The script has been rewritten to make it easier to combine with other scripts, e.g. for UI controls, and support swipes for navigation on touch screen devices. Further work is anticipated on the following:

• Opportunities for graphics designers!
• Bob Ferris has worked on a number of UI extensions which could be incorporated into the W3C slidy script.
• Using scripts to dynamically convert SVG Tiny to VML
• Note that IE9 introduces native SVG support, so it may no longer be worth working on SVG to VML for rendering of SVG
• Using contentEditable when available, otherwise falling back to textarea and plain text conventions
• Using XMLHttpRequest to dynamically reflect changes to server
• Using XMLHttpRequest to listen for navigation commands
• Using VoIP for accompanying audio and teleconferencing
• Synchronizing recorded spoken presentation with currently viewed slide
• and export to PDF via PrinceXML

HTML: HyperText Markup Language

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the most basic building block of the Web. It defines the meaning and structure of web content. Other technologies besides HTML are generally used to describe a web page's appearance/presentation ( CSS ) or functionality/behavior ( JavaScript ).

"Hypertext" refers to links that connect web pages to one another, either within a single website or between websites. Links are a fundamental aspect of the Web. By uploading content to the Internet and linking it to pages created by other people, you become an active participant in the World Wide Web.

HTML uses "markup" to annotate text, images, and other content for display in a Web browser. HTML markup includes special "elements" such as <head> , <title> , <body> , <header> , <footer> , <article> , <section> , <p> , <div> , <span> , <img> , <aside> , <audio> , <canvas> , <datalist> , <details> , <embed> , <nav> , <search> , <output> , <progress> , <video> , <ul> , <ol> , <li> and many others.

An HTML element is set off from other text in a document by "tags", which consist of the element name surrounded by " < " and " > ". The name of an element inside a tag is case-insensitive. That is, it can be written in uppercase, lowercase, or a mixture. For example, the <title> tag can be written as <Title> , <TITLE> , or in any other way. However, the convention and recommended practice is to write tags in lowercase.

The articles below can help you learn more about HTML.

Key resources

If you're new to web development, be sure to read our HTML Basics article to learn what HTML is and how to use it.

For articles about how to use HTML, as well as tutorials and complete examples, check out our HTML Learning Area .

In our extensive HTML reference section, you'll find the details about every element and attribute in HTML.

Beginner's tutorials

Our HTML Learning Area features multiple modules that teach HTML from the ground up — no previous knowledge required.

This module sets the stage, getting you used to important concepts and syntax such as looking at applying HTML to text, how to create hyperlinks, and how to use HTML to structure a web page.

This module explores how to use HTML to include multimedia in your web pages, including the different ways that images can be included, and how to embed video, audio, and even entire other webpages.

Representing tabular data on a webpage in an understandable, accessible way can be a challenge. This module covers basic table markup, along with more complex features such as implementing captions and summaries.

Forms are a very important part of the Web — these provide much of the functionality you need for interacting with websites, e.g. registering and logging in, sending feedback, buying products, and more. This module gets you started with creating the client-side/front-end parts of forms.

Provides links to sections of content explaining how to use HTML to solve very common problems when creating a web page: dealing with titles, adding images or videos, emphasizing content, creating a basic form, etc.

Advanced topics

The crossorigin attribute, in combination with an appropriate CORS header, allows images defined by the <img> element to be loaded from foreign origins and used in a <canvas> element as if they were being loaded from the current origin.

Some HTML elements that provide support for CORS , such as <img> or <video> , have a crossorigin attribute ( crossOrigin property), which lets you configure the CORS requests for the element's fetched data.

The preload value of the <link> element's rel attribute allows you to write declarative fetch requests in your HTML <head> , specifying resources that your pages will need very soon after loading, which you therefore want to start preloading early in the lifecycle of a page load, before the browser's main rendering machinery kicks in. This ensures that they are made available earlier and are less likely to block the page's first render, leading to performance improvements. This article provides a basic guide to how preload works.

HTML consists of elements , each of which may be modified by some number of attributes . HTML documents are connected to each other with links .

Browse a list of all HTML elements .

Elements in HTML have attributes . These are additional values that configure the elements or adjust their behavior in various ways.

Global attributes may be specified on all HTML elements , even those not specified in the standard . This means that any non-standard elements must still permit these attributes, even though those elements make the document HTML5-noncompliant.

HTML elements are usually "inline-level" or "block-level" elements. An inline-level element occupies only the space bounded by the tags that define it. A block-level element occupies the entire space of its parent element (container), thereby creating a "block box".

HTML comments are used to add explanatory notes to the markup or to prevent the browser from interpreting specific parts of the document.

The <audio> and <video> elements allow you to play audio and video media natively within your content without the need for external software support.

HTML is comprised of several kinds of content, each of which is allowed to be used in certain contexts and is disallowed in others. Similarly, each context has a set of other content categories it can contain and elements that can or can't be used in them. This is a guide to these categories.

An Introduction to HTML for Beginners

HTML, which stands for HyperText Markup Language, serves as the foundation of web development. It enables you to create interactive web pages, structure content, and effectively communicate your message.

In this guide, we'll explore HTML comprehensively, addressing essential questions to provide a strong foundation for budding web developers.

The Crucial Role of HTML in Web Development

HTML plays an essential role in web development as it defines the structure and content of web pages. It serves as the backbone upon which websites are built.

HTML accomplishes this by utilizing a system of tags and elements, each serving a unique purpose.

How Do I Write HTML Code?

Writing HTML code is a matter of understanding HTML tags.

Tags are enclosed within angle brackets, each comprising an opening and closing part. They function as building blocks that define the structure of your web page.

Think of them as the bricks and mortar of web development. Understanding their roles is essential for web development.

How to Create a Website Using HTML?

Creating a website using HTML involves several key steps. Let's go over them in the following sections.

Website Planning

Before you start coding, take time to plan your website thoroughly.

Identify your target audience, outline the content and structure of your site and design a layout that aligns with your goals.

Keep in mind that the visual design can be enhanced with CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), a topic we'll explore later in your web development journey.

Writing HTML Code

Open a text editor, such as Visual Studio Code or Sublime Text, and begin writing HTML code.

Start with the basic structure, including <!DOCTYPE html> , <html> </html> , <head> </head> , and <body> </body> .

Then, populate the body with your content.

Saving as .html

Save your HTML files with a .html extension to indicate that they are web pages. Proper file naming is essential for organizing your project.

Local Testing

To see how your website looks and functions, open your HTML files in a web browser. This local testing phase allows you to fine-tune your design and layout.

Hosting and Publishing

For your website to be accessible on the internet, you'll need web hosting services. Various providers offer hosting, and you'll typically obtain a domain name (for example, www.yourwebsite.com) to point to your hosted site.

How to Start HTML Code?

Starting HTML code is straightforward. Let's go over each step in the following sections.

Text Editor Selection

Choose a text editor that suits your needs. Popular options include Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, and Atom. These editors offer features like syntax highlighting and autocompletion tailored to web development.

HTML5 Declaration

Initiate your HTML document with <!DOCTYPE html> . This declaration signifies the use of HTML5, the latest HTML standard.

Building the Structure

Inside the <html> </html> tags, create your HTML structure.

The <head> </head> section contains metadata, including the page title, and the <body> </body> section houses the visible content of your web page.

Adding Metadata

Within the <head> </head> section, utilize the <meta> tag to specify the character encoding, ensuring proper rendering.

How Do I Run HTML Code Step by Step?

Executing HTML code is straightforward, thanks to modern web browsers. Here's a step-by-step guide:

Save Your HTML File

Ensure that your HTML file is saved with a .html extension. This signals to your computer that it's an HTML document.

Double-Click to Open

Double-click the HTML file, and your default web browser will automatically open it. Your browser renders the HTML, displaying your web page.

Alternative Browsers

If you prefer a specific web browser, you can right-click the HTML file and choose "Open with" to select your preferred browser.

Inspect and Debug

Modern web browsers come equipped with built-in developer tools that enable you to inspect and debug your HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Access these tools by right-clicking on your web page and selecting "Inspect" or by pressing F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I (Windows) or Cmd+Option+I (Mac).

How Do You Write "Hello" in HTML?

Displaying "Hello" on a web page is straightforward. You can use the <h1> tag to create a top-level heading, as demonstrated earlier.

HTML offers multiple ways to present "Hello." For instance:

Or you can use a paragraph tag:

Both options result in "Hello!" being displayed on your web page. The choice depends on the context and your styling preferences.

It's worth noting that HTML has six levels of headings, ranging from <h1> (the highest) to <h6> (the lowest). Headings are used to structure content hierarchically, with <h1> representing the main heading and <h6> representing subheadings.

How to Create an HTML File with an Example?

Creating an HTML file is your gateway to web development. Here's an expanded step-by-step guide:

Choose a Text Editor

Select a text editor that suits your workflow and preferences. Modern editors offer features like syntax highlighting and autocompletion, enhancing your coding experience.

Structure Your HTML

Begin your HTML document with <!DOCTYPE html> , followed by <html> </html> tags to enclose your content. Inside the <head> </head> section, set metadata, such as the page title and character encoding, using the <meta> tag.

Add Content

Within the <body> </body> section, insert your content. Experiment with various HTML tags to format your content, including headings, paragraphs, lists, links, and images.

Save with .html Extension

Save your file with a .html extension. This naming convention ensures that your computer recognizes it as an HTML document.

Preview Locally

Double-click the HTML file to open it in your web browser. This provides an instant preview of your webpage, allowing you to see how it appears to your audience.

Introducing CSS for Styling

While HTML defines the structure of your web page, CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used for styling. You can link an external CSS file to your HTML to control the design and layout of your webpage. For example:

This separation of content (HTML) and presentation (CSS) is a fundamental practice in web development.

How Do You Write a Sentence in HTML?

To create a sentence in HTML, you can employ the <p> (paragraph) tag, as mentioned earlier. However, HTML offers flexibility, allowing you to use other inline tags for shorter text snippets. Here's an example:

Alternatively, for shorter text, you can use the <span> tag:

The <p> tag is typically used for paragraphs, while the <span> tag is more versatile and is often used for inline elements within a sentence or paragraph. Choose the tag that suits the context of your content.

Additional HTML Elements to Explore

While we've covered the basics, HTML offers a plethora of elements and attributes for creating rich and interactive web experiences. Here are some additional HTML elements you can explore:

HTML provides elements like <form> , <input> and <button> to create user-friendly forms for collecting data.

You can use <table> , <tr> , <td> and other related tags to structure tabular data.

Embed images, audio, and video using <img> , <audio> , and <video> tags.

Links and Anchors

Create hyperlinks using the <a> tag to connect web pages and external resources.

Use <ul> for unordered lists, <ol> for ordered lists and <li> for list items.

Semantic Tags

HTML5 introduced semantic elements like <header> , <nav> , <section> , <article> and <footer> to enhance the structure and accessibility of web pages.

Further refine your document with meta tags, including those for specifying character encoding, viewport settings, and author information.

In closing, HTML is your gateway to web development. It provides the foundation upon which you can build stunning web experiences and effectively communicate with your audience.

Whether you're embarking on creating a personal blog, launching an e-commerce site, or showcasing your portfolio, HTML forms the foundation of your online presence.

As you progress in web development, remember that HTML is just the beginning of your journey. Complement your HTML skills with CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity. This approach empowers you to create dynamic and engaging websites that captivate the attention of your audience.

In your pursuit of web development excellence, embrace the challenges and endless possibilities presented by HTML and the ever-evolving field of web technologies. Stay curious, never stop learning, and remain current with the latest standards and best practices. Connect with me on Twitter .

Embed a Powerpoint in a Web Page

Is there any way to embed a PowerPoint slide show in an HTML page using just the standard tags etc? I tried using a iframe, but that just results in the PowerPoint being downloaded.

I am looking for a way to show the slide show using only standard stuff. I realize I could use google docs or flash or something, but I'd rather have a simple implementation.

Does the web just not know how to process a PowerPoint presentation?

Web browsers don't understand power point, but there are solutions besides Flash.

You could export it to HTML or a PDF. Or you could also upload to site like slideshare and make use of their players which are built for this problem.

I have decided to take a hack route and upload the powerpoint onto YouTube and then just include the youtube video in the iframe.

I know, it's cheap, but it's also easy.

I eventually checked my page as XHTML Strict, which does not support the <iframe> tag. So I used the object tag instead.

I tried answer posted by Shane, which looks exactly right and how MS used to have PPT viewing online earlier but it didn't worked for me. After doing some research I found out that the link has changed a bit.

So use: https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/ view.aspx instead of https://view.officeapps.live.com/op/ embed.aspx

Note: Link to PPT need to be publicly accessible.

• 2 I like more google docs viewer works with docs, pptx, pdf, etc. <iframe width="100%" height="630" src=" docs.google.com/viewer?url=your_file&embedded=true " ></iframe> –  Alexis Cabrera Mondeja Commented Apr 6, 2020 at 2:05
• Animations and effects present in a PPT won't work with google docs viewers. –  SumitK Commented Apr 7, 2020 at 6:29
• But you can use "Open With" and use Google presentations App. –  Alexis Cabrera Mondeja Commented Apr 8, 2020 at 14:07
• I'm not sure if that can be done directly via a link like we can with MS. Also I believe to use Google Slides user need to be signed in with an Google account. –  SumitK Commented Apr 9, 2020 at 15:21

Use Microsoft skydrive, upload your power point to this site and use this code

http://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=20f065afc1acdb2e&page=view&resid=20F065AFC1ACDB2E!723&parid=20F065AFC1ACDB2E!719 is the URL of the powerpoint file.

You have to replace SD20F065AFC1ACDB2E!723 for your own string of the corresponding URL

• Look the code of this site, crc.tc/powerpointDemo.html and replace SD20F065AFC1ACDB2E!723 with your own power point skidrive URL identifier –  Carlos Soto Johnson Commented Jul 8, 2012 at 4:21

Upload a PowerPoint document on your Google Drive and then 'Share' it with everyone (make it public): Sharing your pptx doc

Then, go to File > Publish to the web > hit the publish button.

Go to Embed and copy the embed code and paste it to your web page

Copy embed code

Works Best for me.

Goto MS View Office Documents Online Page

Enter link to PPT file Note: This link should be publicly Accessible

Click on Create URL.

Link to view office documents online will be generated.

Paste this link to any webpage or as iframe src attribute.

You are all set!! :)

I was able to do this by saving the PPT as an mp4 (Save As > MPEG-4 Video (*.mp4)) and then using the video tag.

If you are using Google slides you could easily publish it on the web and also embed the slide in an iframe.

Go to google slides -> file-> sharing -> embed and copy the code

and then in your HTML file use the below code to show slides in fullscreen mode.

why not use prezi, I just use it in my work, very easy and useful.

How to Convert PowerPoint Presentations to HTML: A Step-by-Step Guide

Converting a PowerPoint presentation to HTML format can seem daunting, but it’s a straightforward process. Essentially, you’ll be saving the PowerPoint file as a web page, which creates an HTML version of the presentation. This can be done directly from PowerPoint itself, and once complete, you’ll have an HTML file that can be viewed in web browsers.

After you’ve converted your PowerPoint presentation to HTML, you can share it more easily across various platforms. It’ll be accessible to anyone with a web browser, without the need for PowerPoint software.

Introduction

Have you ever created a brilliant PowerPoint presentation and wished you could share it on the web for a wider audience? Well, converting your PowerPoint to an HTML format is the perfect solution! HTML, which stands for HyperText Markup Language, is the standard markup language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser. By converting your PowerPoint to HTML, you open up a world of possibilities for sharing your content online.

This process is especially relevant for educators, marketers, and businesses looking to distribute their presentations more broadly. It allows for easy sharing on websites, email, and social media platforms. Plus, it ensures that your audience doesn’t need to have PowerPoint installed on their devices to view the presentation. So, let’s dive into how you can turn your PowerPoint slides into a web-friendly format!

Step by Step Tutorial on How to Convert PowerPoint Presentations to an HTML Format

The following steps will guide you through converting a PowerPoint presentation into an HTML format using Microsoft PowerPoint.

Step 1: Open your PowerPoint presentation

Open the PowerPoint presentation that you want to convert to HTML format.

In this step, you’ll need to have your presentation fully prepared and ready for conversion. Ensure all animations, transitions, and multimedia elements are properly set up, as they will be included in the conversion process.

Step 2: Click ‘File’ and select ‘Save As’

Navigate to the ‘File’ tab on the ribbon and select ‘Save As’ from the dropdown menu.

When saving your presentation, you have several format options. For converting to HTML, you’ll need to find the appropriate web format in the upcoming steps.

Step 3: Choose the location to save the file

Decide where on your computer or network you would like to save the HTML version of your presentation.

Consider creating a new folder specifically for web files if you’re planning to upload the HTML presentation to a server. This helps keep your files organized and easily accessible.

Step 4: In the ‘Save as type’ dropdown, select ‘Web Page’

From the ‘Save as type’ dropdown menu, select ‘Web Page’ or a similar option depending on your version of PowerPoint.

This step is crucial as selecting the ‘Web Page’ format is what converts your presentation into HTML. There may be different naming for this option based on the PowerPoint version you’re using, such as ‘Web Page (.htm;.html)’.

Step 5: Click ‘Save’

After selecting the ‘Web Page’ option, click ‘Save’ to convert and save your PowerPoint presentation as an HTML file.

Once you’ve clicked ‘Save’, PowerPoint will create an HTML file and a folder containing all the necessary components for your presentation to display properly in web browsers.

Additional Information

When converting PowerPoint presentations to an HTML format, it’s crucial to consider the compatibility of your presentation across different web browsers. While most modern browsers will display HTML consistently, older versions may have trouble with certain features or animations. Additionally, remember that the HTML version of your presentation will include a folder with supporting files like images and animations. Keep this folder in the same location as your HTML file to ensure the presentation displays correctly.

Another tip is to check your presentation for any proprietary or confidential information before converting it. Once in HTML format, your presentation becomes much easier to distribute, and you’ll want to make sure it’s ready for a wider audience. If you’re using a company or school template, ensure you have the rights to share it online.

Finally, consider the SEO benefits of converting your presentation. With proper use of keywords and descriptions, your HTML presentation can be indexed by search engines, making it easier for people to find your content online.

• Open your PowerPoint presentation.
• Click ‘File’ and select ‘Save As’.
• Choose the location to save the file.
• In the ‘Save as type’ dropdown, select ‘Web Page’.
• Click ‘Save’.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will my animations and transitions still work after converting to html.

Yes, most animations and transitions will be preserved in the HTML format, though some complex effects might not translate perfectly.

Can I edit my presentation once it’s in HTML format?

Editing the content of an HTML file is possible but can be more complex than editing in PowerPoint. It’s recommended to make any necessary changes in PowerPoint before converting.

How can I share my HTML presentation?

You can share the HTML file and accompanying folder via email, or you can upload it to a web server to be accessed via a link.

Will the HTML file be the exact replica of my PowerPoint presentation?

While the goal is to preserve as much of the original presentation as possible, there may be slight differences due to the limitations of HTML.

Can I convert my HTML presentation back to PowerPoint?

It’s not recommended as the conversion from HTML back to PowerPoint may not preserve the original formatting and interactivity.

Converting PowerPoint presentations to an HTML format is a powerful way to expand your audience and ensure your work is accessible to anyone with internet access. Although there are some considerations to keep in mind, like potential feature loss and file size, the benefits often outweigh the drawbacks.

As we’ve explored, the process is relatively simple and can be done directly from PowerPoint. It’s an excellent skill for anyone looking to share their ideas and presentations online more effectively. So, why not give it a try, and see how your PowerPoint presentations can shine on the web?

Social Security

Income taxes and your social security benefit ( en español ).

About 40% of people who get Social Security must pay federal income taxes on their benefits. This usually happens if you have other substantial income in addition to your benefits. Substantial income includes wages, earnings from self-employment, interest, dividends, and other taxable income that must be reported on your tax return.

You will pay tax on your Social Security benefits based on Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules if you:

• Between $25,000 and $34,000, you may have to pay income tax on up to 50% of your benefits.
• More than $34,000, up to 85% of your benefits may be taxable.
• Between $32,000 and $44,000, you may have to pay income tax on up to 50% of your benefits.
• More than $44,000, up to 85% of your benefits may be taxable.
• Are married and file a separate tax return , you probably will pay taxes on your benefits.

Each January, we mail a Social Security Benefit Statement (Form SSA-1099 or SSA-1042S) showing the amount of benefits you received in the previous year. You can use this Benefit Statement when you complete your federal income tax return to find out if your benefits are subject to tax.

If you do have to pay taxes on your Social Security benefits, you can choose to have federal taxes withheld from your benefits to avoid or reduce owing tax in the future.

For more information about taxation of benefits, read our Retirement Benefits booklet or IRS Publication 915, Social Security and Equivalent Railroad Retirement Benefits .
