Publisher does not produce slide shows.
Perhaps you used PowerPoint and have your p's confused?
But no a slide show does start automatically online.
You'd have to look at a product like Macromedia Flash.

Not to defend M$, but slide shows are annoying as hell. Forget about slide
shows on your website unless you want to annoy many visitors.

You will get no argument from me on that point. Seems a lot of sites are
nothing more than flash (or Flash, if you will) and sparkle and very little
actual content.

Hi JoAnn Paules (jpaules@publishermvps.com),

I prefer sites that use flash for say movie trailers, videos, etc so that my
browser isn't busy loading Windows Media Player or Quicktime.

I'll give you that one. It's the sites that seem to think that if they bore
me with some bandwidth crap I'll stick around to view the rest of their
site. Wrong.
