    But it's cropping off the borders of my form that were added in the Wufoo form maker.

    We do CC processing on our Wufoo Form. Don't I need to link to my wufoo form via https? But it only allows me to use http for the Permanent Shortlink URL.

    There is nothing secure about embedding an HTTPS form into an HTTP page (and your browser will correctly not show a lock icon). You will have to link the user to the Wufoo website instead.

    All the more reason to allow us to run the javascript wufoo no? I have an email from Wufoo that says my embedded code on my page is a secure transaction. Are they lying to me?

    That won't change anything. Unless your SmugMug page itself is loaded over HTTPS, your browser won't display a lock icon so no savvy person will enter their credit card details.

    They are misinforming you. When you embed a Wufoo form on your page, if the Wufoo form itself uses HTTPS, and the customer enters their data into the page and hits submit, it is encrypted and sent off to Wufoo's servers, no chance for attack there and nobody can see the data that is submitted except Wufoo.

    However, because the SmugMug page that the Wufoo form is embedded in is *not* encrypted with HTTPS, an attacker which can modify the SmugMug page as it's sent to your customer can just swap the Wufoo form out for their own which instead sends the data straight to them. Because the SmugMug page doesn't use HTTPS, there is no way for your browser to detect that the page had been altered by somebody else as it was loaded, so as far as it's concerned, that's where the customer's data was supposed to go.

    This is why your web browser will not show the lock icon in the address bar for your SmugMug page, even though the data might be being sent to Wufoo over HTTPS (if nobody is currently attacking you), because the origin of the page cannot be guaranteed.

    When you instead link the user to Wufoo's website to fill in the form, the entire page is encrypted with HTTPS, and the browser will show a lock icon in the address bar to confirm that it knows exactly which organisation will be receiving the data that it submits, a true secure transaction.

    How does one go about embedding a wufoo form onto a page.

    I had one on my legacy site and I'd like to do it on my new Smug.

    here's a link to where it just shows "Fill out my form:" http://www.paulconrad.photography/NatureAndCityScenes/Landscape-and-Fine-Art-Print-P

    I'd rather have the wufoo form show in the spot which it used to.

    The CSS and HTML don't work: ne_nau.gif

    There's a Wufoo Form content block. It's within services under content blocks. Then simply use the form's URL and paste it where it asks.

    Drag a Wufoo form content block onto your page. It's under Services in Add Content Blocks.

    I understand that and did it, but I want the form to meld into the info pages I have for weddings, fine art, and portraits so if they're reading that page, they can quickly send a message to me rather than click on a link to go to another page.

    Where the "Fill Out My Wufoo Form is on this page ( http://www.paulconrad.photography/Weddings/Wedding-Information ), is where a full form used to show up. At least in the blank area of the photo with a dark background to make it show well. Not just the text/link.

    The previous CSS would allow me to have that plus take out the Wufoo logo:
    .wufoo .info{
    display:none !IMPORTANT;
    }

    And this coding:
    #contactBox {
    width:400px;
    padding:5px;
    float:left;
    margin-left:0px;
    }

    Does not seem to work.

    Did the parameters for using CSS change?
