Visio 2002 Query Relating to 'Save as Web Page' (Technical) - LONG
Hi Group,
I'm hoping that someone here might be able to give me some guidance here. I did post a message previously but it has since disappeared. I'm new to both Visio and Web technologies in general. I have created a set of "interactive" flowcharts in Visio 2002 which are designed to be viewed in a web browser (I'm only dealing with the VML save option at the moment). Essentially, users can click on Yes/No (or 'X'/'Y') outputs from decision boxes which act as hyperlinks to further pages which show/highlight the route through the flowchart that they are following (i.e. if they click on "Yes" then the subsequent page would display that path in a different colour). As a 'default' the web pages generated are displayed with a 'page selector' and a 'zoom control'. Whilst I wish to retain the zoom control I don't want the user to be able to select individual pages 'out of context'. I seem to have managed to get rid of the page selector by some "off the cuff" editing of the output files, however, what I really want to do is "retain" any user selected page zoom setting across all hyperlinked pages, i.e. if the user selects a particular zoom setting for a page then any other pages that are displayed as the result of selecting hyperlinks have the same zoom setting. That is my main problem. Something that also would be a "nice-to-have" is for pages selected via hyperlinks to be centralised, at the current zoom setting, based upon the previously selected hyperlink. The following scenario details (hopefully) what I am attempting to achieve with Visio 2002 output to web pages: - Page 1 has 3 decision boxes joined in a horizontal row, all with black borders and black connecting lines. - User changes zoom setting from 'Full Page' to 200%. - User clicks on left hand decision box (which has a hyperlink to Page 2). Page 2 has 3 decision boxes joined in a horizontal row (exactly as per Page 1), except the left hand decision box border is coloured green and the connecting line from the central decision box to the left hand decision box is also coloured green. What I would like the end result to be is that Page 2 is displayed at the zoom setting selected by the user on Page 1 (200%), and (less importantly) that the left hand decision box is centralised on the displayed page (Page 2). I realise that this is a lot to ask guidance on - especially from a complete novice - but these may be questions that have been answered previously. Kind regards, Kevin Bowden Bedfordshire UK |

Visio 2002 Query Relating to 'Save as Web Page' (Technical) - LONG
Hi Kevin,
You should be able turn off the page selector control in the Visio 2002 Save as Web output by going into the properties for the Save as Web output and unchecking the check box for this control. (FileSave as Web PagePublish). The Visio Save as Web feature produces web output within the parameters of the properties settings available in the Visio application. Unfortunately I can't help much with the specific customizations you would like to apply. I can't think of any HTML tips to pass along to address the post-processing customizations that you're working on. -- Dick Hamilton Microsoft Corporation This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
