Importing content
With Contribute you can easily add Microsoft Word and Microsoft
Excel documents or content to your website. For example, suppose
you have
a Word document with a table that contains contact information
for all of your faculty members. You don’t have to recreate
the table on your web page -- you can use Contribute to add it
to your
website.
There are two ways to add Word or Excel content to a web page:
- Access the Insert menu from the top of the Contribute workspace,
select a Word or Excel document, and browse to find the document
on your hard drive. When you select the document and click
OK, Contribute will immediately add the contents of the Word
or Excel document to your web site.
- Resize the Contribute workspace so you can also see part
of the Windows Explorer, find your Word or Excel file, click
and drag
the Word or Excel icon onto the Contribute workspace. When
you use the drag-and-drop method, Contribute will ask you if
you wish to insert the file or create a link to the file.
When you add content to a page, Contribute converts the content
to HTML and copies it to your web page. You can edit the content
in Contribute; changes you make to the original file on your computer
will not appear on your website.
When you create a link to a document, your visitor must also have
Word or Excel installed on their computer.
