Is this the correct forum? 2

[Trudye]

I have previously placed this inquiry in 2 forums (Power Point and VBScript) and received no responses. Is it possible I am not placing it in the correct forum?

I created a PP presentation and saved it as a HTML file. I uploaded it and it displays fine. And here comes the BUT..

I added some Custom Animations (i.e. arrows whose display I setup to be timed) but they are not working. They are already on display when the slide appears(i.e. they just lay there). Since I am using FrontPage is it possible to add VBScript code to correct the problem.

Is there something I can do in the code to get the timed displaying of the animation items to work?

I have seen PP slide shows with timed animations but I don't know how they got it to work.

Here is the URL if you would like to see my dilemma:

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

I visited your site and pushed the powerpoint slide show button iin the bottom right corner. The app went to full screen and all animations worked.

I don't know how to solve your problem. Wish I did. But, it seems to have to do something with needing to set the slide show started, and not the ppt editing screens.

I'm not an expert with PowerPoint, but isn't it possible to set the timing within PP? I believe I have seen this elsewhere, probably in the same area where you added your custom animations. Possibly in the Slide Transition?

Sorry, but I am unable to view your site at the moment, but I am guessing this may be the issue. Hope this helps...

Yes Chopstik you are correct, it is possible to set the timing in pp. My presentation works great in PP, the timing it perfect. I just can't get the timing to work online.

Thanks to much guys for your quick responses. I may have to pay to get the answer.

I could KISS you! I just tried what you said and I'll be darn if it didn't work (DUH)! You are 100% correct, when you click the little TV monitor in the lower right hand corner the PP page goes full screen and the timed displays work. Who would have THUNK it?

Now I just have to figure out how to get the TV format to be the default. It takes a village to raise a child and a another pair of eyes to help a fool.

Thanks again

This might be the link you are looking for.

"To ensure that animations play when the presentation is browsed, click Web Options, select Show slide animation while browsing, and then click OK. "

Let me know when you get it.
