4. We need to view the form page itself and not use the iframe tag. Remove the code before and after the webpage URL. It should end up looking like this.
https://spreadsheets.google.com/embeddedform?formkey=dGN6dlJMNkRQT0N6aW81bElQVWdyRGc6MQ
5. Copy and paste this URL into your browser address bar and view the page. It should look like the form and the form elements will be nested against the edge of the page.

Choose “edit confirmation” and change the text there. To add the link simply put a URL into the box ex. http://www.facebook.com/yoursite . Using HTML in this box will not work, only the URL
