    Embed webpage in a powerpoint slide?

    We're going to use powerpoint, displayed on multiple screens, to display daily communications, etc.. to our facility.

    does anyone know if it's possible to embed a webpage (ie - local weather radar) onto a powerpoint slide? This slideshow would automatically change every minute or so, and we'd need the the webpage to update automatically.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks!

    it sort of works...

    Hi, guys,

    I was also very impressed with Live web when I started looking at it. However, there are a few bugs and I need some advice, please.

    If I display a webpage on a slide, then move on but then come back to that slide, I get the 'Navigation to the webpage was cancelled' message ...

    The same happens if I close the slideshow and want to start it again. It seems the only way to get the webpage to display once is to shut down powerpoint and start again ...

    I am using PowerPoint 2007 and IE 7. Any advice will be greatly appreciated, thank you.
