It's often hard to get the third pane completely blank, the difference is between having empty text there and having nothing there. The technique I've found that works consistently is: when defining the trigger, go to the third pane and type command-x. This is the standard Cut shortcut and you are literally cutting out anything that might be there. I think it says this in the Web Searches section of the manual.

I quote from Howard Melman's excellent guide to Quicksilver: "A trigger for a commonly used web search, such as Wikipedia, is very useful. If you specified the argument in the trigger it would search for the same text each time it’s run. However, if you leave the third pane blank, then when the trigger is run, Quicksilver will open a command window with the first two panes filled in (in this case with Wikipedia Quicksearch and Search For…), and the third pane selected, ready for you to type the query." When I leave the third pane blank, it actually only brings up a blank Wikipedia search page in my browser - Quicksilver doesn't appear at all. I am using the Wikipedia search that comes with the web search module. What am I doing wrong?
