RE: [DQSD-Users] half searches
*or* the search can be performed by calling gg (or whatever search engine you wish) like 'gg half blah blah blah...' to avoid letting the toolbar interpret which search is being called..

DQSD won't recognize the words as searches, and will just treat them as regular words (and search for them with google).

RE: [DQSD-Users] half searches
Hi Dean, Do you have a list of which ones need changing? I might have some time to burn on renaming and testing them. In my opinion, these need renamed: alarm, ascii, bio, brit, chap, configure, dir, dns, email faq, half, is, mac, multi, php, rfc, rgb, rss, run, sams shack, so, timer, ul, wa Most because they are known/common terms - I've found myself having problems searching for other things using most of them, and the others I could see myself having issues. I think a naming convention should be used to name searches so that common words could be used with little modification. Something like appending q to the search (alarm becomes alarmq). s is a plural form so would cause more problems, and z is a typical mis-spelling, so it would also potentially be a search term. I think q is the only one that seems both applicable and reasonable (except it's far from the center of the keyboard - but hey, beggars and all...). Regards, Shawn K.

One thing we need to consider is that this change will break a lot of aliases for a lot of people. JB Hi Dean, Do you have a list of which ones need changing?

RE: [DQSD-Users] half searches
Dean, Please remember to rename the function name to match the search name if you rename any of these.. Just like the search names, the function names have to be unique, and to ensure this is the case, there has been a guideline that the function name match the search name. As far as the suggestion of using a q appended to the searches, you might have some resistance in getting this idea agreed to.. I had some negative feedback in the past when i attempted to rename some of the searches to make the names intuitive. (I have a problem with the really short 2 char search names..) Even though the searches could be aliased to a 2 char string.. The point is that if you are suggesting that the user might have to type an extra character or two, it might not be warmly received...

[DQSD-Users] dqsd form basics.
Does anyone have a good example of using dqsd to populate a form and submit it. I would like to pass the form values thru the toolbar like so, but i don't know where to start. formname field1info field2info field3info There is also atime field that it listed on the form, I was hoping to have that autopopulate also without me typing it in. If anyone has a simple example of this, would really appreciate it. Thanks Anthony Do you Yahoo!? Exclusive Video Premiere - Britney Spears
