You can create CDF files based on your Mathematica notebooks so that users who don't have Mathematica can still view their contents. In this movie, I will show you how to create a Computable Document Format file. As my sample notebook, I will use the CreateCDF notebook, which you can find in the Exercise Files folder. I have opened the file already.
