Description
EditGrid is a nice application that allows the creation of quite sophisticated spreadsheets. And, more importantly, can be embedded in other web pages.
Simply create a spreadsheet, set share to "Public" (you can choose between Read Only or other nice options), go to "Publish" or "Post to blog" under "Settings", set the options you like and copy&paste the code
Example spreadsheet follows:
Code
[[embed]]
<div style="margin-bottom:2px;font-size:10px;background-color:white"> <a style="font-weight:bold;text-decoration: none;color:#4D5782" href="http://www.editgrid.com/user/redbeard/Wikidot_test" target="_blank">EditGrid Spreadsheet</a> by <a style="text-decoration: none;color:#4D5782" href="http://www.editgrid.com/user/redbeard" target="_blank">user/redbeard</a>.</div> <iframe frameborder="0" src="http://www.editgrid.com/publish/html/user/redbeard/502723/A1:J10?" style="border:0;height:320px;width:100%"> </iframe>
[[/embed]]
In action
Or you can even use a mini-editor:

I have the same issue as boettcht up there, and I apologize but I'm a newbie and don't really understand the solution given in response. I've tried placing the iframe script alone, within an embed tag, within a div tag, and within both an embed and div tag, and none of these solutions works. Would someone be willing to take me step by step through the process?
hi,
it is a bit disturbing that you are bound to that div. However just add display:none; to the style attribute to get rid of it. You can then put whatever you want above it.
I really like this solution but when I try it out I'm getting an error of "Sorry, no match for the embedded content." Any thoughts?
The information above is not correct:
Wikidot seems to require the <div> header that goes before the iframe code provided by EditGrid. There seems to be some javascript in it that matters, I couldn't even change the name of the spreadsheet that's in one of the <a> enclosures. One also needs to add the [[embed]] tag for this to work.
I am not certain enough of what's going on with this piece of code to fix this instruction - but someone should.
