In reply to Chinmay Patil. I think this method is now obsolete. You need to use Google Sites.

In reply to allie greenfield. you can upload your word document as google doc, but it would be hosted as a whole

As it is usual for Google, they do want you to use only their software
The only “easy” way to include live document outside Google docs is to use…., you guessed it, …. google sites

I think there is a way to go around it… and I may look at this when I will have time

In reply to Aaron. I think I found the difference - this article discusses original format in which google docs were published. I noticed that GD suggest upgrading document to latest editor... this would convert it to a new format adding all this unnecessary stuff with menu and such... you can compare original article and the same in new format a lot of things happened in two years. It could be a time to revisit 2 years old article :) Edit: see my other comment below :(

It a Public Document also Published on the Web.

The Reason I would like to use your Code is that When you embed the Page in a IFRAME, every think opens up inside that iframe.

Can you tell me about how you created your Google Doc, So that I can get the ID. Maybe I am doing something wrong in Google Docs, Or maybee Google Changes Something.

Thanks

ok, I see. No, did not use this format. could it be that it is public document versus private?

Login into Google Docs. Now you should see list of articles you have created/uploaded. When you hover your mouse over the article item link or click on any of them you will notice URL parameter named docid with some long scrambled value associated with it. This is what you are looking for. If you are trying reference someone else's document look at the URL for it - parameter value you would need for is wid.
