Why convert ELP to HTML?

Converting .elp to .html lets you publish an eXeLearning course on any web server or open it locally in a browser without needing eXeLearning or an LMS. The web export is the format eXeLearning is designed to produce, so interactive activities keep working.

eXeLearning (Web Site > Self-Contained Folder) OPEN-SOURCE

Open the .elp, then File > Export > Web Site > Self-Contained Folder. Upload the folder to your host, or open index.html locally.

eXeLearning (Single Page) FREE

Use File > Export > Single Page to flatten the whole course into one .html file, handy for quick sharing or printing.

Quality & what to watch

  • The Self-Contained Folder is a whole directory, not one file; keep the index.html together with its images and CSS folders or links and styles break.
  • Some interactive activities rely on the bundled scripts, so serving the files over HTTP (not just a raw file open) gives the most reliable behavior.
  • You must have eXeLearning to open the .elp; renaming or unzipping it exposes internal files, not a finished website.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Self-Contained Folder and Single Page?
Self-Contained Folder keeps one .html file per page plus assets; Single Page merges the entire course into one long .html document.
Which file do I open after export?
Open index.html in the exported folder to start at the first page of the course.
Can I host the export anywhere?
Yes. Upload the folder to any web server or static host; no special server software or LMS is required.
Do interactive activities survive the HTML export?
Yes, the web export is the native output, so quizzes and other iDevices generally keep working in a browser.
