Storing Data
But how does it store the data? It will be written to a Google Docs Spreadsheet under your Google account. The spreadsheet gets created automatically and data will be added to it as visitors fill out and submit the information. You can also share this document out for others to review.
After a visitor submits the data, a thank you page within your blog page appears, which is nice because it doesn’t navigate away from your blog page.
2/14/09 Update: Here’s a link to what the output looks like.
A cool thing you can do is automatically display the results on your blog. There’s quite a few nice features that Google Docs provides so make sure you subscribe to my blog to find out more about Google Docs and Google Docs Forms in future articles.

Google Docs is a good way to go for online forms and you have described it with profficiency in this post. However, there are even better free alternatives out there. I may mention 123ContactForm. Here are some of the features I find most useful.
- CSS customization – because styling forms to fit the image of the site is important.
- CAPTCHA and smart CAPTCHA anti-spam options available, and also SSL encryption of data.
- We always need better control over data. 123ContactForm works well with 3rd party apps such as MailChimp, and even with Google Docs.
Thanks for solving that problem for me! Excellent post!
How to add this to a dynamic view?
May be you need something more in the coding part of the form embedding.
