I am having bit trouble. I need to know how can I do the live presentation(.pptx or .ppt) on the website. I am searching for it for past 4 days and recently I found one site which is doing the exact thing what I am looking for but it have lack of support and it doesn't support Firefox browser and there is no API for it. So what I need to it with IFrame. Here the reference link what am I try to achieve.
https://presentation.io
Hope you will understand the thing I am looking for and provide some useful suggestion to me. Thanks.
magento comes bundled with scriptaculous so I figured I'd use those for a simple slideshow with navigation to jump between slides. -what a mistake, I can't find anything other than pause/play controls. Why?
EDIT:
To clarify what I mean by "jump between slides" is - i'm looking for buttons like 1 2 3 4 NOT pause, prev, next.
Because there aren't that many people developing with scriptaculous.
The real question is why is Magento bundled (and from what I can tell, pretty tightly coupled) with a lackluster javascript library.
If that's "Why aren't there many slide shows", its because Prototype/Scriptaculous was most widely by the Rails community, so most of the interesting Prototype/Scriptaculous add-ons are confined to Rails applications.
If that's "Why does Magento use Prototype/Scriptaculous", its because the Magento developers saw it as the best way to accomplish their goals.
There may not be hundreds but there's certainly more than zero. Here's 3 I found just on the first page of a google search:

Is there an ajax toolkit that does:
A star rating system
captcha
file upload
auto-complete
I am planning a new social website.
A lot of the frameworks can do what you are looking for, but the the answer to "Which is better" is hard to define. And, unfortunately, the frameworks are developing so quickly that a comparison is only valid for a short amount of time.
The highest rated question on this topic was asked about a year ago, https://stackoverflow.com/questions/394601/which-javascript-framework-jquery-vs-dojo-vs.
Hopefully that can give you some background, so you can make a more informed decision.
I need to use MediaWiki at work. It used to be okay, but with sites s.a. StackOverflow, there's some user interface issues that simply don't do any more.
Most importantly, I'd want to see the live preview when typing. There shouldn't be need for a preview mode.
What Wikis are you using? Which would be the best for a recent (easy) Web experience?
Can MediaWiki be updated to have more recent UI behaviour?
Addendum:
Two products seem to be above others, both "open source commercial" (= you get a skinny version free, standard and enterprise levels with more goodies cost).
MindTouch DekiWiki
Confluence
Judge for yourself. I sure found my liking in one of these. :)
There is a WYSIWYG extension for mediawiki. See Fckeditor:
Well there is StackExchange (which is the StackOverflow engine), but you have to pay for it.

It doesn't have the preview feature you talk about, but you asked for "favorite wikis", so here's mine (at least favorite for ease of use/setup):

I've recently begun evaluating a few project management projects for the company I work for. It's the classic case - growing company looking for the right solution (meaning, free or really cheap). It's a combination shop - Windows, Macs, and Linux on the desktop. The tech savviness, of course, ranges from newbie to unix guru.
I have yet to find anything really close to a total solution. I don't expect to find one, but I am looking for suggestions/guidance/any sort of feedback based on people's experience.
What I'm looking for:
web based
methodology independent (not looking for an agile solution, etc.)
free or really cheap
document management
timelines and milestones
task tracking and assigning
reporting
source control
development wiki
I've looked at Trac, Projectivity, Basecamp, JIRA, RT, XPlanner, and SharedPlan. I've stayed away from Bugzilla due to previous unhappy experiences with it. None of these things really does everything - some are extendable, but I'd check here before going down that path.
Thanks,
Read through Edward Tufte's long-running Ask E.T. topic Project Management Graphics (or Gantt Charts). There is no consensus answer, but a lot of things have been evaluated.

Trac - integration of tickets / wiki / commit-comments is great.
Caveat: installation can be PITA...
Check out Jira Studio. All of Atlassian's apps, hosted for you.

You get wiki/tracker/svn browser and more.
Have a look at Redmine, it's a Rails app. Haven't used it yet myself, but thinking about moving to it from activecollab. This applications seems to be evolved quite fast last year.
My experience of Jira (with Confluence for the wiki) has been rather good, although it is quite pricey the support people were very responsive and helpful. The place where I used that had svn for version control, and the two played together OK. On the other hand I found Xplanner to be a very odd app - really inflexible if you don't want to be doing XP, and surprisingly documentation-centric for an XP shop.
If you don't mind doing a bit of configuration yourself and have a windows server somewhere in your shop then you could set up your very own customized project management system in SharePoint.
* web based
* methodology independent
* free or really cheap
* document management
* timelines and milestones
* task tracking and assigning
* reporting
* source control
* development wiki
The source control system is not a part of SharePoint so it is really a question whether that requirement is paramount or not. But besides that you will have all of the above for free if you install WSS (comes free with a 2003/2008 server)
There is even a book from O'Reilly about how to set up a PMIS in SharePoint
One solution for the more visual of us would be to use Drupal 6x. with the Project and Subversion (now Version Control) modules. I prefer Joomla with ProjectFork, but until its modded with a repo browser, this will have to do.
Hope this helps.

I looked hard at Alfresco and Joomla.
None met my needs because I wanted the ultimate in simplicity. But, you seem to prefer having the kitchen sink included (while keeping it easy to use, I guess), so either one of these might be right for you.
Currently, I'm throwing together my own using Django, keeping only the project-deadline, forum and file-versioning concepts.
