Looking for a technique to embed an InfoPath form into an HTML page

[Larry W. Virden]

Imagine a situation where one has published an InfoPath 2007 form to
SharePoint. The form is used to gather information then mail that
information to a contact.

Now, someone wants to embed the IP2007 "new document" form within an
HTML page that will provide a standard header, footer, sidebar
navigation, etc. Basically, the resulting page should look like:

Logo and other standard heading stuff

IP 2007 Form Sidebar Navigation


Standard footer stuff

Some tests were able to sort of do this using HTML frames; however,
there were issues in getting the width and length of the frame where
the IP 2007 form was to reside.

Is anyone aware of any tutorials or books which discuss the various
issues that have to be addressed when building such a page?

Thank you very much.

Hey Larry,
Have a look at the InfoPath Form Viewer control
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb861998.aspx
this control was provided for the exact solution your trying to build.
However there is one caveat and that is that the page created is hosted in
your SharePoint Site.

Hope this helps

Cheers
