Google Docs & Spreadsheets
Google has just released "Docs & Spreadsheets"; an enhanced version of Google Spreadsheets (which I wrote about previously) that includes an online word processor which publishes to the web. It's a bit like the Google Labs Page Creator (which I also wrote about), but it gives greater freedom as far as page layout is concerned. On the other hand, there aren't any of the nice web page templates, and it's not designed to create a set of interlinked web pages.However, it's easy to incorporate a Google Doc into a web page in the same way that a Google Calendar can be embedded. Here's the proof...
Here I'm using an
<iframe> to embed the Google Doc web page, but it would be better to embed it as an <include> file instead. For one thing, any hyperlinks would then work normally rather than just pulling the web pages into the iframe. Secondly, the scroll bar would disappear. In order to do that I'd need a script to strip out and include just the relevant part of the Google Doc web page (without the Google footer!), which shouldn't be that hard to achieve, I think.
