Save as web page: Template_ProjectTitle

[Hall]

I saved my project plan as a web page using a basic map. The html file is
fine, except at the top is a title I can't find anywhere in my plan using MS
Project. In the html file, the title is preceded with
<!--MSProjectTemplate_ProjectTitle-->

Where can I change this value?

Similarly, I have this with a table name preceded with
<!--MSProjectTemplate_TaskTableTitle-->

I'm on Project Pro 2002.

Thx y'all

Those are special codes written into the HTML by Microsoft Project.
This text should not be visible when viewing in the browser. In
general, you don't have to touch the HTML.

For the Project Title, in Project go to menu: File/Properties and fill
in a Project Title. Project will put that text into the position as
shown here for "Here is your Title" in this position:

<H1><!--MSProjectTemplate_ProjectTitle-->Here is your Title</H1>

To chagne the Table Title, change it on the HTML saving wizrd box
labled: HTML Table Title (the box where you specify the table columns).

Thanks for the quick reply.

File->Properties shows shows the project name I DO want to appear, but the
html file shows something else! So it must be getting it from a different
field.

As for the HTML table title in the wizard, if I remove the table name that
appears, I get an error message "A destination table name is required".

So neither worked. Any other ideas?

Why Project Title doesn't go in ... don't know. Works ok for me.
The html for me is:


<H1><!--MSProjectTemplate_ProjectTitle-->Project Test</H1>
where only the words "Project Test" are shown when viewed in browser.
IF your browser displays this html differently, it's a flawed browser.


Re the Table Name ... Yes, you have to have "something" there, I guess.
That's the way the programmer wrote it. Just put in full stop (.) or
something if you need "nothing". Space doesn't seem to work.

Or, consider writing a small VBA program out output exactly the HTML you
want.

You can change the title that appears on the HTML template
by updating the Title section found on the Summary tab for
the .mpp properties. In other words, go to
File/Properties. Click on the Summary Tab, change the
title, this is what gets displayed in the HTML. You do
not need to update the HTML every time you export as
suggested on this thread.

Joe,

I guess I didn't communicate clearly enough. I think the OP was saying
that even by changing "title" in File/Properties, he still wasn't seeing
that change when viewed in the browser. Why is a mystery. It is not
necessary to look or edit the HTML (unless interested or want to change
something). But if the HTML that is created by Project is not "good
enough" ... then best bet is to make your own. That requires knowledge
of HTML and a bit of VBA coding.
