If you own blogspot and you feel that the comment form you have is totally unefficient than the Wordpress has, meaning everytime your visitor wants to leave comment they have and must to open new windows. Not only to leave the comment but also viewing it. Its kinda annoying i know, and this is not only happen for reader but also for you! Although you can set it in your Dashboard setting and make it to open at the same window but you will need an improvement on your comment still. So why can't you create that comment form?! The comment form may not look similar as you have seen already on Wordpress but at least it gives you a nice looks and simple to post. Jackbook gives you this hope, they're always providing useful tips and this is just one of them, i highly suggesting you to visit this site to see how

1. Go to Dashboard Settings page > comments
On Comment form placement, choose Embedded Below post

2. Go to your Dashboard > Layout > Edit HTML

P.S- you might need to backup your template in case anything goes wrong

3. Check Expand Widget Templates box and find these codes below

[p class='comment-footer'>
[b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'>
[a expr:href='data:post.addCommentUrl' expr:onclick='data:post.addCommentOnclick'>
[data:postCommentMsg/>
[/a>
[/b:if>
[/p>

4. Replace it with the following code

[p class='comment-footer'>
[b:if cond='data:post.embedCommentForm'>
[b:include data='post' name='comment-form'/>
[b:else/>
[b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'>
[a expr:href='data:post.addCommentUrl' expr:onclick='data:post.addCommentOnclick']>
[data:postCommentMsg/>
[/a>
[/b:if>
[/b:if>
[/p>

What is really matter is this code:
a expr:href='data:post.addCommentUrl' expr:onclick=

Note: You might need to search it twice or more depend on what theme you're using

5. Save It and you're done!
