How can I embed a Word document in a web page?

Hi,

I am wondering wether there is a way to embed a word document in a webpage. The documents are hosted at a remote server (aka: files aren%26#039;t hosted on my website). I know that there is a way for pdf files (if you have a better way for this too please let me know):

%26lt;EMBED src=%26quot;example.pdf%26quot; width=%26quot;650%26quot; height=%26quot;854%26lt;/EMBED%26gt;

Also the word documents are more than one page (I found this method that only does the 1st page for you. It uses somekind of flash method).

Try to close the tags correctly

%26lt;EMBED src=%26quot;example.pdf%26quot; width=%26quot;650%26quot; height=%26quot;854%26gt;%26lt;/EMBED%26gt;

Or simply post a link to it

%26lt;a href=%26quot;example.doc%26quot;%26gt;Click Here%26lt;/a%26gt;

This is amusing. You should try your suggestion to see that it doen%26#039;t work. The question is how to embed a Word document, not a PDF document. You can%26#039;t embed a Word document. There is no browser plugin for Word documents. Report It

Other Replys:To embed a file in a web page requires a plugin that simulates the application used to create the file. Where can your viewers find a Word plugin? I%26#039;ve never seen one. Also, embedding someone%26#039;s file is no different legally from downloading it and uploading it to your own server so you can%26#039;t get out of anything legally by embedding it.

Make a link to the file and the viewer will have to download it. But that is still not a good solution. Although most people have Word installed on their computer, quite a few do not since it costs big bucks unless it is pirated. A PDF is better since Adobe Viewer is free. For that matter, why not just copy all the data from the Word file and put it into a web page as text and picture links? Then you will not be asking anyone to get a plugin or anything. Don%26#039;t ask people to do more than is necessary.
