aspx thread: Showing Visio docs on Web Pages


Message #1 by "Subraya Hegde" <subrayah@i...> on Sat, 18 May 2002 09:17:23 +0530
Hi All,

  I am wondering if somebody can help me in showing the visio documents on 
the web......

 My client has got a strange requirement where some 1000 visio documents
have to be shown on web as HTML Pages. Each visio doc has got some 
activity blocks, which has some hyperlink information within it. On 
clicking a particular block, the page should navigate to some other word 
document.Each activity block has got some custom properties also. When we 
navigate to a new page, the values of these custom properties also have 
to be loaded into the new word document.

 I tried to convert the visio docs to HTML docs from the Microsoft Visio
IDE.The problem is if you save the visio doc as a HTML file, the whole 
document is stored as a single .GIF file. So, we can not identify the
clicking of an activity block.

 Also I tried to convert the visio doc to a XML file using a tool, so that 
later I can re-construct an HTML version of the same visio file. But I am 
facing hell a lot of problems, as I am new to XML also.

 Are there any methods in ASP.NET (Or more precisely the DotNet Framework) 
to solve this issue? Or any other alternative ways to achieve this?

An early reply would be highly appreciated.

Thanx in advance,
HegdeS.
