Hi,

How does one embed a word document into html?

I have a word document stored on a server and I want the document to be embeded into my html. I can doe this with a pdf file but cant seem to get it to work with word. or can it be phased as an html document instead?

Save it from word as an HTML file instead?

I already have loads of word docs and would prefer to just embed as is. I just wanted to know if there was a way to embed word docs as html without saving them as html.

Do you want to embed it so it shows on the page? What if someone doesn't have word?

It would be better to put a link in which would look something like:

Code:

<a href="path/to/word/document/file.doc">WORD DOC</a>

Or if you just want to show it on the screen try

Code:

<object width="775px" height="500px" classid="clsid:00020906-0000-0000-C000-000000000046" data="sampleword.doc"></object>

I've got that from a website (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/Sho...94724&SiteID=1) so I don't know if it would work.

You would need to replace

Code:

data="sampleword.doc"

with the path to the document inc http://
