Embed Google groups HTML?

I want to embed my google groups page into my website. I had done this earlier this year, by checking somewhere on the my groups admin/management page and was able to define the size of the page, and get the html (iframe) code to paste into my web site and even do away with the top banner.

For the life of me, I can't remember where to find that customizable page in google groups anymore. Have they removed that feature?
Can anyone direct me?

Smile workaround

I found a work-around. In google calendar you can fine tune the embedded appearance. I made my google calendar all pretty and then exported the html code. I pasted this code in the google groups iframe on my groups page in my web site and replaced the google calender url reference in the html code with the the url for google groups. Viola. embedded google group page.

I was using Apples iWeb for the web layout (simply because I was too lazy to set up dreamweaver) but it doesn't matter. On your web page create a frame and then past in html code into it so that you are basically creating a web page with in a webpage.

it looks like this:

<!--BeginHTMLData--><iframe src="http://groups.google.com/group/blah/" style=" border-width:0 " width="620" frameborder="0" height="750"></iframe>


My original problem was embedding my google groups page so that it was formated correctly and looked nice. I wanted it to match the style of my web site. Unfortunately I was unable to specify the color and size of the embed in the export parameters in Google Groups. I could however do this in Google Calendar so I simple set all the parameters I wanted in Google Calendar, exported the html code (it's just text), copied it and pasted it into by frame on the page I set up for Google Groups. In the Google Calendar code there is a reference to the url of my Google Calendar which I cut out and pasted in the url for my Google Groups page and there it was.

Does this help?
