I checked in a Companies House search probably a year or two ago (should be ch.xml) which has been crippled by them including a session key that I can't work around. No amount of moaning at the relevant people could get the addition of a session key after a query is posted, so the search is

Kim/Monty - My office NT4 box doesn't give an Add Quick Search type option in the toolbar after installing DQSD. And I finally woke from my post-Christmas semi-comatose state and realised that (as Kim also mentioned) the Error is due to the remote site wanting to affect the local zone, so it

[DQSD-Users] DQSD + Firefox

2004-09-28 Thread James Robertson
I've just started using Firefox (1.0 PR) over the last few days and I've got to say that it's pretty darned great. Some really nice plugins for it as well. However, I'm wondering if any other Firefox users can help - is there any way of ensuring that *all* of the DQSD windows open in the same

Kim - I hadn't appreciated the DQSD architecture issues, especially with it already being hosted by the taskbar process. I've got to say that it amazes me that there's not any clear way of addresing the issue. Personally, I might go back to XP SP1 - SP2 has crippled my digital radio and nobody's

Kim - Thanks for the reply. I know I'm going to feel awkward about making this suggestion since I can't code it up, but... I've got a feeling that the only way to get DQSD working properly under XP SP2 (even taking into account the available registry hack) might be to wrap up (i.e. host) DQSD in

Just tried using the 1.25 version of gg.xml which is in CVS and I'm getting an error message popping up saying that it's expecting an object at line 321 character 5, the URL being the search.htm. gg.xml v1.24 in CVS works fine. I'm assuming that it's nothing to do with my configuration of DQSD

Thad's obviously hit the nail on the head here, but presumably it is potentially dangerous to set those registry keys to 0 since they will cancel the increased security in the Local Zone for HTML which is implemented by SP2's Local Machine Lockdown. There's a linked page detailing developer

Well, if that's going to be done then the UK holidays can be a bit difficult. In particular, holidays falling on a weekend are celebrated on the Monday following. If two consecutive holidays fall on a Saturday and Sunday, they are observed on the Monday and Tuesday following. Presumably that would

Dave - Like JB said, it may well be down to IE integration with the OS. As I recall from Win95, there was a Desktop Update OS patch that came with Internet Explorer 4.01 SP2. This installed a quickstart bar and allowed a web desktop, and so it might enable you to use DQSD on Win95. If you can
