Hello.
Is there a way to show a powerpoint presentation (ppt) through php?
I found some free programs that convert ppt to flash but they have banner with their ad.
I'm creating a business project and i don't want any ads.
I'd be very glad if you help me!
Thank you very much!

If what you need is to present your powerpoint presentation online to a webpage/url, you can try Google docs. They accept uploads of PPT file and convert it into a Google doc presentation that can be embed into a webpage.

PHP is a server-side language, not client-side. If you want to show this presentation on the client's web browser, PHP will not help, but if you just want to tell the browser that the file is a PP presentation, you could output correct HTTP response headers and then the browser would either download it or open it with the client's installed PowerPoint software.
