Re: Visio to HTML "ROBUST"

I've experimented with this.

It's mostly a matter of digging through the output that Visio creates and
modifying it yourself. Visio creates lots of output files: images, html,
vml, javascript and xml files. Understanding it isn't really easy, but it's
possible.

I created a couple of pages of VBA code that automatically exported a
drawing, and then made a floating "mouse-over-popup" that displayed custom
properties. It did this by inserting some javascript into the resulting
output, or by throwing most of the Visio-created files away and making a
custom html file that utilized the Visio image map. I can't remember
exactly. It was pretty rought, just a proof of concept.
