#### 12.5.1 HTML export commands

`C-c C-e h (``org-export-as-html``)`
  Export as HTML file `myfile.html`. For an Org file `myfile.org`, the ASCII file will be `myfile.html`. The file will be overwritten without warning. If there is an active region1, only the region will be exported. If the selected region is a single tree2, the tree head will become the document title. If the tree head entry has, or inherits, an `EXPORT_FILE_NAME` property, that name will be used for the export.
`C-c C-e b (``org-export-as-html-and-open``)`
  Export as HTML file and immediately open it with a browser.
`C-c C-e H (``org-export-as-html-to-buffer``)`
  Export to a temporary buffer. Do not create a file.
`C-c C-e R (``org-export-region-as-html``)`
  Export the active region to a temporary buffer. With a prefix argument, do not produce the file header and footer, but just the plain HTML section for the region. This is good for cut-and-paste operations.
`C-c C-e v h/b/H/R`
  Export only the visible part of the document.
`M-x org-export-region-as-html`
  Convert the region to HTML under the assumption that it was Org-mode syntax before. This is a global command that can be invoked in any buffer.
`M-x org-replace-region-by-HTML`
  Replace the active region (assumed to be in Org-mode syntax) by HTML code.

In the exported version, the first 3 outline levels will become headlines, defining a general document structure. Additional levels will be exported as itemized lists. If you want that transition to occur at a different level, specify it with a numeric prefix argument. For example,

         C-2 C-c C-e b

creates two levels of headings and does the rest as items.

#### Footnotes

[1] This requires `transient-mark-mode` be turned on.

[2] To select the current subtree, use `C-c @`.
