How to EMBED a document in your BLOG

Here is something NEW to LEARN!

In computer lingo, EMBEDDING, is to create a space in your code (HTML) to force the viewing of a file in the page that you are designing.

You can EMBED documents, Slide Presentations, Movies, Music, and more.

You will need to EMBED your submissions for lessons in this class in your BLOG. Here is a video that demonstrates exactly HOW to do just that: (by the way, this video is embedded in this post).



OK, so now you know how to EMBED, but what about changing the SIZE of the WINDOW that your paper is EMBEDDED in?

This is done in your HTML code, and is easy to do, just follow the steps:
  1. COPY the following:   height="500" width="95%"
  2. Go back and edit your POST
  3. Switch to HTML view (just like in the video) 
  4. Scroll down to the CODE that copied into the post that has your paper embedded
  5. Place your cursor right after the code "<iframe" and just before the "scr=" code.
  6. Paste the code you copied into the line, it should look like this:


<iframe hieght="500" width="95%" src="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sB9fH3tlrbXkq4XwYkIqz1u-8G_uKQ8EOa0NcyXN1Rg/pub?embedded=true" ></iframe>

Now click the UPDATE button and your document window should be much bigger.
