    I changed the background colour of my form in Designer, then saved it. When I return to Builder the revision hasn't kicked in. Also, on my Google sites site, it hasn't kicked in either. I've waited no 24 hours and cleared my cache but makes no difference.

    I see 2 issues with your jotform (1 beside the background color).

    Lets resolve them :)

    1st - the background

    Please inject this CSS code to your jotform:

    html.supernova, body {
        background-color: lightgray;
    }

    You can see how to do that here: Inject Custom CSS Codes

    *Add the code above at the bottom - under all the other CSS in it.

    The bold part above can be edited to some other color - I tell you this since I see that the background color on the screenshot is not the same as this one. If you are not sure how to do it, just let us know what color you would like to have and we would be happy to set it up for you.

    2nd - the embedding

    You have used js embed code which did not create a proper iframe for you, so the form is not fully functional.

    To resolve this I would recommend using the iframe embed method instead.

    Do let us know if you have any questions or issues with either of the two.

    Perfect Ben. CSS code works just great. Many thanks. 

    The embed iframe option didn't work though as google sites threw out some of the code and there was just a blank space where the form should have been. Looks to me like it looks fine with the embed for google sites option below the iframe one.
