What Is a Web Object?

Web objects are contained in Web pages.

A Web object is defined as any element or component that can either be contained within a Web page or used as a link to an external Web page. Web objects are often used to create reference links in slide presentations.

Web Content

Any content that can be found within an active Web page can be referred to as a Web object. This can include but is not limited to images, videos, blocks of text, animations and banners.

Links

The term "Web object" can also refer to any element placed within an offline presentation that is intended to serve as a link to online content. The content may appear within the presentation, or it may need to be viewed in a separate browser.

Uses

The primary use of a Web object in a presentation is to allow the presenter to make use of pre-existing Web content. It is often beneficial when presenting information to be able to reference a source other than the presentation itself.
