3. Search "Ctrl+F" and find </head> and before it paste the next code:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.1.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://artistutorials.googlecode.com/files/jquery.fancybox-1.3.0.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $("#contact_form").fancybox({ 'width' : '75%', 'height' : '75%', 'autoScale' : false, 'transitionIn' : 'none', 'transitionOut' : 'none', 'type' : 'iframe' }); }); </script>

5. Save the template.
OPTIONAL: If you want to host the image in the FancyBox Css yourself just download the archive from here:
6. When you created a contact form in Google docs ,it give you a link to form like this :
https://spreadsheets.google.com/embeddedform?formkey=dGJDLXdRQkFrdC1KZThucEFicjljdWc6MQ
Now ,what we need to do is add a link to pop-up contact form . Add this code to your template file where you need a 'contact me' link
<a id="contact_form" href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/embeddedform?formkey=dGJDLXdRQkFrdC1KZThucEFicjljdWc6MQ">Contact me</a>
Change the red link to contact form in script above to your contact form link

thank you but i have a problem.
The x(close) not dislaying to the box.
I just looked to your site and it's showing up.
it's showing only to Firefox(v. 4)(http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/5008/firefoxv.png)
IE 9(http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/7158/39789630.png
chrome(http://img862.imageshack.us/img862/2769/chromepw.png)
and opera(http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/1581/operaz.png)
now showing. Shadows too. I linked screenshots.
I tried to upload files (js and css) to google code project. I modified css file with photos to imageshack.
It's not a big problem because when you want to close the form you just need to click outside the pop-up window.
But I updated the tutorial and now it shows up all the buttons and shadows. Just follow the steps.
It's working. Thanks!!!
