Can multiple users view a .pps show on the web at the same time?

[Ellen]

I have figured out that the kinds of branching I want to do with custom
shows in a powerpoint cannot be exported successfully to HTML. So I was
thinking of putting the file on the webserver as a .pps file.

How well does this work? If several people want to view it at once, will it
bog down? Will it even allow more than one at a time?

The issue I am having with the HTML export is that hyperlinks to custom
shows simply does not work once the file is saved as a web page. I am not
sure why, and if I could solve that, I'd be home free.

Usually it's because the path of the hyperlink is for your computer's hard
drive. When you post the file somewhere else it can't find the linked
files. Put the linked files in the same folder as your program. Now the
links will work. The program will first look in its own folder for the file
and then, if they're not there, it will look along the pathname you used.
