Blogger Contact Form Widget-How to use in Separate Page?

Bloggers are expecting something missing since a long time, that is no other then the Contact Form.  Finally Blogger introduce Contact Form Widget Officially this week. Now no need to depend upon the third party code or google docs to create form for blogs. 

Before this Widget many Blogger use Google Docs Form for contact form in blogger. NepaliBlog also used same. Now no need to depend on the Google Docs. Its a great achievement for bloggers. Since this is in initial stage need more modification. 

Missing A lot. 


Since this is widget which can be kept on the right or left sidebar, also in Bottom at footer.  But many bloggers want to keep in separate page. We can also keep it in page after some HTML Tweeks Admin of Bloggerplugins+Aneesh Joseph Wrote a post about this.
 Many things are lacking in this widget. NepaliBlog list out some of the Drawbacks. 
  • No option for File Attachment. 
  • No Captcha So chances of Spam Mails. 
  • Blog Admin cannot Notice the Email address of senders and their IP address. Contact Message will come from no-reply@blogger.com. We cannot reply them. 
New Improvements
+Blogger has got some improvements. We can see the email address of  Sender.

How To Install This Gadget in Blogs.

      <form name='contact-form'>
        <p/>
        <data:contactFormNameMsg/>
        <br/>
        <input class='contact-form-name' expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + &quot;_contact-form-name&quot;' name='name' size='30' type='text' value=''/>

        <textarea class='contact-form-email-message' cols='25' expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + &quot;_contact-form-email-message&quot;' name='email-message' rows='5'/>
        <p/>
        <input class='contact-form-button contact-form-button-submit' expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + &quot;_contact-form-submit&quot;' expr:value='data:contactFormSendMsg' type='button'/>
        <p/>

          <p class='contact-form-error-message' expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + &quot;_contact-form-error-message&quot;'/>
          <p class='contact-form-success-message' expr:id='data:widget.instanceId + &quot;_contact-form-success-message&quot;'/>
        </div>
      </form>
    </div>
  </div>

So the final code should be like this. 

Don't remove the Widget from the Layout of Blogs. This widget will not show in the sidebar of homepage. Instead it will show only in blog Page.
