Embedding upload link in HTML

Hi all, 

I'm creating a quiz that will require users to submit to me a file containing their final quiz. Is there a way to embedd my upload link to my dropbox within an HTML friendly text box?

    No, there isn't. The Dropbox website cannot be embedded in your own page.

    Your best course of action would be to create a File Request, and then link to it within your HTML document.
