Sorry. There was an error in my code. I guess that's what I get for posting without testing. Anyway, if you change the code to the following, you should get better results.
<!-- START PASTED CODE --> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/jsapi";></script> <script type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[ google.load('search','1'); google.load('elements','1',{packages:['newsshow']}); function init(){ var newsshow = new google.elements.NewsShow(document.getElementById('myNewsShowContainer'),{ queryList : [ {q : 'Astronomy'}, {topic : 't'} ], ned : 'us', rsz : google.search.Search.SMALL_RESULTSET, format : '728x90', linkTarget : google.search.Search.LINK_TARGET_BLANK }); } google.setOnLoadCallback(init); //]]></script> <div id="myNewsShowContainer"></div> <!-- END PASTED CODE --> In case you didn't notice, the difference is that, instead of including q and topic parameters as top-level members of the options object, you have to stash them in the queryList array. I'll mark up the mistake to brain freeze. It's been a long, cold winter in Iowa! (But, in case anyone is in the area, our church is having a luau after worship March 14 to chase the winter away!
