Indeed that was it. i whitelisted in Ghostery: www.google.com
Thanks for the prescience. greg ~krsnadas.org -- from: Raul Miller <[email protected]> to: [email protected] date: 30 January 2013 07:57 subject: Re: [Jprogramming] j dictionary search In ghostery, you can specifically enable "google's ajax search api" and that should be sufficient to make it work though you might also want to enable some of the other options (sadly, though advertising seems poorly targeted, and thus irrelevant, boring and generally not worth bothering with). You can also disable blocking on this site instead of on all sites. Raul -- from: R.E.

Are you using and addons (like ghostery?). Does its javascript console show any errors (you can right click "Inspect Element" and flip to the console tab in the pane that's revealed)? Is chrome up-to-date?

And, if you want to make your own, you can start at http://www.google.com/cse/ FYI, Raul -- from: greg heil <[email protected]> to: [email protected] date: 29 January 2013 14:01 subject: Re: [Jprogramming] j dictionary search Raul i did try a simple query - "jhs" on Chrome and FF (W7). Chrome stayed in the loading state, and FF resulted in zero answers (though there were some ads, not from jsoftware). i take it one has to be eligible for an Google API key to develop such, like custom searches? greg ~krsnadas.org -- from: Raul Miller <[email protected]> to: Programming forum <[email protected]> date: 29 January 2013 12:56 subject: [Jprogramming] j dictionary search I threw together a google custom search for J's dictionary: http://www.google.com/cse/home?cx=016147560673599814097:rhtkeo7p3cy This represent's maybe a minute's effort (aside from the time to compose this message). I considered making a broader search, but this represents the search that I have been using most often. It's entirely possible that someone else could come up with a small collection of site searches that are more useful than mine (especially if they are after breadth of scope rather than precision of results). Note that if you are blocking extraneous content you may need to enable google's ajax search api.
