Embed Word, PPT, and Excel in a Website - excel

I'm trying to embed Word, PPT, and Excel files on a website.
I've tried Google docs and Microsoft Office 365 but I had the following issues with them:
If I'm not signed in using my Gmail account for many days, the embedded document won't show up. Also, sometimes it says that I've reached the maximum number of views for the current document.
Microsoft office 365's problem is that it adds big top and bottom bars to the documents and they come with colors (red, green, and blue)..which makes the website look very ugly

You can install LibreOffice on your server and do the conversions from any doc files to PDF automatically.
An alternative is using VeryPDF.

Did you try this? It adds a bar at the bottom but that's required to navigate the slideshow

How to embed MS Word into a XPages

Is it possible to embed somehow MS Word object in XPages? I would like to use MS word as preview at the same XPages. There will be some filed then What I enter into field will update MS Word just like you see preview in MS Word before what you would like to print
I just wonder even if it is possible or not? Any ideas will be appreciated.
It's unlikely this will be specific to XPages. My golden rule on "how do I do x in XPages" is search "how do I do x on the web" and go from there. This StackOverflow question is as good a starting point as any. How to embed a document in HTML page?
You are probably entering a world of hurt down that road.
The old options:
OLE embedding was Internet explorer only (not Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge) and Windows only. Required Office on the workstation and is typically disabled for security (nothing of that has to do with XPages as backend).
Word to Html (requires word or OpenOffice on the server) is a Pita.
Your mobile users will not be happy or the MAC folks. Try to stick to a HTML editor and render that part.
But if you have to:
Poi4Xpages allows rendering of MS office documents from XPages app (one way output)
WebDAV for Domino allows round-trip editing of attachments in Domino
Skip the Word part and render directly to PDF - at least you get print fidelity. There's a series on that
POI4XPages will allow you to send Domino data to bookmarks in Word. From there users can download the Word doc or you can output to pdf.

Embed Powerpoint in web page without conversion as per Confluence

Confluence automatically shows Powerpoint slideshows without any conversion you just use a built in one line macro and it shows up embedded in the page using a Flash solution.
I've tried searching extensively but everywhere tells me I need to convert to some other format or host on Google Docs or Youtube etc.
Can someone suggest to me another Flash based solution where I don't need to convert from PPT first or tell me which one Confluence uses (I have also tried to find this myself)?
It's not feasible to view or create a slideshow of the PowerPoint slides on a web page without converting them to images. You can convert the slides to the required image format. The output format will depend upon your particular scenario i.e. whether you want to show high quality and scalable output or you want to show low quality and low size output. You may then create a slide show from those images even using JavaScript.
Find information about embedding a PowerPoint slide at https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Embedding+PowerPoint+Presentations+in+a+Page
The View File macro may be the one you're looking for:
https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/View+File+Macro
{viewfile:ExampleFileName.ppt}
The results are much better if you export to PDF from PowerPoint then use the Confluence macro for PDF.
This tool turns confluence into powerpoint https://bigpresentation.bigquant.com/ , conflucne + reveal js.

Viewing Word Documents inside Browsers

I'm searching for some kind of Programm / Java Applet / ActiveX Control or magic spell to view Word / Excel Documents inside Browsers (Browser independent would be the best case, but IE only ist just fine).
I don't want to open Word itsself inside a frame, because that gives users the false impression that they can edit and save the document i just want to display its contents.
I also found solutions which converts the word document to pdf first, but i can't do this due to some security restrictions on the environment i'm working on.
This can help when those proprietary file formats can first be converted to ODF (for example by LibreOffice/OpenOffice.org): http://webodf.org/
(I will not comment on "security restrictions" and using Microsoft software ...)

Creat a website counter on dreamweaver cs5

Hello I use dreamweaver cs5 on my website designer it is very good.
But one thing I wanted to kow was how do i create a counter that counts all the different computer id that look at the page.
I have seen loads of ones you can embed but all of them have links to other sites.
If anyone could help it would be ver appreiated
A quick google search shows that there is many different options out there. Try searching for "hitcounters". The one that stands out to me is: http://www.e-zeeinternet.com/. That one shows a visible image showing the number of hits. If you want to have that is not visable or shows more info try http://www.google.com/analytics/. You will just need to fill out some information and then embed the code into the page (at the location you want). They are simple to setup

How can I export a list from SharePoint to Excel, with header/footer/page orientation?

We would like to export a view of a custom SharePoint list to Excel on a repeatable basis, and with some minor formatting.
I have made a .iqy file by using Actions/Export to Spreadsheet from the view menu, and then uploaded this .iqy file back into SharePoint. When users click on it, it does bring up the data in Excel - but without the headings repeated each page, with the columns spilling onto a second page (width-wise), etc.
The .iqy file seems to be a plain text file which can be opened in Notepad so perhaps there is a way of passing parameters to Excel through this which would do the trick? Does someone know?
Alternatively, I also saved one of the resultant spreadsheets from opening the .iqy file, applied some formatting to it, and then uploaded that back into SharePoint. I set it to refresh the data connection on opening and I think this is working ok except there are two frustrations.
Firstly, by default, Excel says it has blocked data connections and I need to manually enable them. Is there a way to prevent this short of editing the trust centre settings on each computer that will open this spreadsheet?
Secondly, when I click on the spreadsheet in SharePoint we are asked if we wish to open the document for editing or read only. Ideally, I'd like to just give the user the opportunity to open or save the document (and certainly not to save it back on to the server, as I expect Edit would do.)
Does anyone have any sage advice for me that would make either the first attempt (.iqy file) or the second attempt (formatted spreadsheet) work successfully? Or maybe you have other, better ideas?
Thank you,
Regards,
David W
An Excel Web Query (iqy) is just not going to work. Its only purpose is to define a "web query" for Excel to open.
First frustration, I am not positive, but digitally signing the workbook may avoid the blocked data connection prompt. Also, if I remember correctly, there is a Global Policy setting for this, so if you are part of a domain, you can have this setting changed when the user logs into the domain.
Second frustration. Not much you can do here.
Suggestions, all kinds. We would need to understand your requirements and constraints. But, I suggest you dynamically create the workbook using XMLSS. You have full control over formatting, layout, and nearly everything else, without the need to have Excel installed on the server. The served workbook must then be saved locally and cannot be saved back to server.

Here is a search for "visual basic asp xml workbooks site:microsoft.com",
http://www.bing.com/search?q=visual+basic+asp+xml+workbooks+site%3Amicrosoft.com. Search for ASP generates more results. Note it is easy to translate/migrate to ASP.NET so do not let the ASP throw you.
I recommend starting with Using Visual Basic and ASP with XML to Generate Excel 2003 Workbooks at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa203722(office.11).aspx, especially near the end of the article because there is an example on creating a workbook and setting the page print orientation. Moreover, there is an example on how to create a template.
