HTML is an output option available for the Class Roster, Class Standards, Overall Class Grades and Grades by Assignment reports. In addition to printing reports to disk, printer or on-screen, an Internet-ready HTML page can be created for these reports. Simply make selections from the appropriate menus and dialog boxes to configure your report, select HTML from the Output To: menu, and click OK. You will be prompted to enter a filename, and click OK. A file with the extension ".htm" will be created.

The ".htm" file is a complete, self-contained Web page. If you have Web pages of your own, you may create links to your HTML report. However, the report only contains information. It does not contain any links, so the only way to navigate from the HTML report is to use the "Back" button on your Web browser.

If you are involved in Web development, you may wish to add links to your HTML report, or insert it in an existing Web page. You may open the file and edit the code using any text editor, such as NotePad for Windows or SimpleText for the Macintosh. There are comments in the HTML code to guide you in making the appropriate alterations to your report if you want to include it in an existing page.
