 * Having trouble using this plugin. I go through the documented procedure to publish
   to a page and I get the above error when I inspect the source code.
 * Here is my embedded code that I use:
 * [gview file=”[https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0As7_5YBWFE_ydEZiOGp4ejdFS3hLcTNKa2Q5anFMZUE&hl=en&authkey=CPHkrv4K”%5D](https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0As7_5YBWFE_ydEZiOGp4ejdFS3hLcTNKa2Q5anFMZUE&hl=en&authkey=CPHkrv4K”%5D)

 * Sorry. The error code is the following:
 * GDE EMBED ERROR: invalid URL, please use fully qualified URL (when viewing the
   source code

 * Please put your file in an acceptable format. Note that Google Documents are 
   NOT included in the list of supported file types. I recognize this is confusing,
   as the plugin uses the Google Docs viewer. But if you place the file as an XLS
   on your wordpress site, for example, you will find it to function much better.
   Files stored literally in google docs have multiple layers of security and sharing
   that complicate the process. My plugin therefore only utilizes the viewer and
   does not integrate with google docs itself.
 * You could try the force=”1″ option (or turning off error checking in Advanced
   Options) but I doubt this will work. The embedded viewer is not designed to function
   in this way on third party sites, and that is what my plugin utilizes to function.
