Sharing Office Files Online • Many Web pages are created using the HTML programming language. • Web page editors are software programs designed to generate HTML code. • A single file Web page is one file that contains the HTML document along with all the supporting files. • A filtered Web page is an HTML document with the Office-related tags removed.
Creating Web Pages in Word • Click Web page in the New section in the New Document task pane. • Click File on the menu bar, and then click Save As Web Page. • In the Save as type list, select Web page. • Select a location, file name, and page title, and click the Save button.
Typing the Text of the Home Page • In the Microsoft Word window, design your Web page just as you would a normal Word document. • You can manually transform the look of any aspect of the Web page, or you can apply a theme. • A theme is a designed collection of formatting options that include colors, graphics, and background images. • To access the Theme dialog box, select Theme from the Format menu.
Inserting Hyperlinks • Hyperlinks, or links, provide an easy way to navigate within and between Web pages. • You can link to: • An existing file or Web page • A place in the same document • An e-mail address • Insert a hyperlink by clicking the Insert Hyperlink button on the Standard toolbar.
Previewing Web Pages in a Browser • Before you publish Web pages for others to view, you should preview them in a Web browser to ensure that the pages look like you expect them to. • Not all browsers display Web pages in the same way. • There are several ways to preview Web pages in a browser: • Web Page Preview command on the File menu • Using the Web toolbar • Use the Open command from the File menu in your browser
Creating Web Pages in Excel • You can convert an Excel workbook into two types of Web pages: noninteractive and interactive. • An interactive Web page provides tools for users to modify and format the values displayed in the Web page from their browsers, while a noninteractive Web page does not. • In Excel, save the file as a Web page using the File menu and check the Add interactivity check box in the Save As dialog box if you wish to create and interactive page.
Publishing a Workbook • You can publish either the entire workbook or a current selection in the active workbook. • To publish an Excel worksheet, click the Publish button in the Save As dialog box to display the Publish as Web Page dialog box.
AutoRepublish • Excel can automatically republish the workbook every time you make changes and save the workbook. • To enable AutoRepublish, click the AutoRepublish every time this workbook is saved check box to insert a check mark.
Viewing and Testing an Interactive Web Page • Open the Web page containing the interactive worksheet in your Web browser. Make sure the browser window is maximized, and refresh the page as necessary.
Creating Web Pages in Access • You can create three types of Web pages based on Access database objects. • A static HTML page is a Web page based on an object in at the time the page was created. • A dynamic HTML page is an object that is created each time the page is viewed or refreshed. • A data access page is a Web page that is linked to the data in the database. • To save a static Web page, right-click the object in the database window you wish to use (or export) and select Export from the shortcut menu.
Creating Web Pages in PowerPoint • Saving and publishing an existing PowerPoint as a Web page allows Web site visitors to view and navigate the slide show in their Web browser. • Publishing the slide show allows you to choose options for publishing your presentation. • Which slides to publish • Browser compatibility • Page title
Publishing Web Pages • Publishing is the process of copying the HTML file to a Web server or network server, along with the associated files such as images. • Publishing is also sometimes referred to as uploading. • FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a communication protocol that enables you to manipulate files and folders between remote computers.
