[DQSD-Users] FAQs
OK. I've taken on managing the FAQ section. Glenn currently has 2 example questions there. He used CSS styles to put the questions there. So after teaching myself the basics of using CSS (I've never really mucked with HTML using styles manually before), I am actually ready to start adding questions and answers (still only local on my PC). I currently have these general categories: General Installation Searches Shortcuts / Aliases Preferences Aliases and I currently have these questions from Glenn: How do I find out what searches are available? How do I add my own searches? What are 'shortcuts' or 'aliases' / how are they defined? How do I customize the look of the toolbar? What options are available for customizing the operation of the toolbar? My question for the group is are there other questions you all can suggest to be included? Thanks, JB John W.

RE: [DQSD-Users] run command in 2.5.8 beta 4
One of the problems with the (excellent) consolidation of the google, gg groups, gg advanced, gg uk, gg canada, etc.. is that aliases were created to redirect the searches to the gg search when the replaced searches were called - gguk for example.. Because aliases were created for this, shortcuts are now always present for gga, ggca, ggn, gguk and ifl. IMHO I think the shortcuts category should only contain aliases created by the user. With the excellent help text for the gg search, the user can easily see how to execute these searches using the switches.. I dont see a need to force 5 shortcuts on *everybody* especially since a large amount of people wont even know what the searches mean. (not everyone using the toolbar is technical)..

I made some more changes (sorry :/) to 'plain it down' some. What do you think about adding numbers to the questions? You could even have category#.question#. E.g., 1. General 1.1 How do I find out what searches... etc. BTW, is the HTML just a pain? I'm starting to think that just a simple plain text version of the FAQ would be easier to maintain/search/etc. for everyone. Thoughts?

[DQSD-Users] Observations about the latest beta
My observations of 2.5.8 b5: 1) By default, pressing Enter now performs a word wrap when using the default search. I had to set multiline=false to fix this. This did not occur if I used an alias, or typed a URL. 2) After setting autocomplete=true, autocomplete works for me. I've NEVER been able to get autocomplete working before in dqsdd. I don't know what changed, but I'm glad it is. 3) Accessing history by pressing up and down is AWESOME! Not sure when that change was made, but it is much preferable to CTRL-N and CTRL-P. Familiar to someone who has used a Unix shell or Doskey. Who am I kidding...no one knows what Doskey is these days. 4) Several of the script bugs I was running into in recent betas seem to be gone. This might be due to me making 100% sure I had a clean install this time though. 5) New menu system is very nice. 6) Right clicking now pops up the standard Windows textarea right click context (Undo, Copy, Cut, Paste, Select All) even if I've set cal=true; in the preferences.js. Very good work guys. I really do like the changes. -Dan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Glenn Carr Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 11:33 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [DQSD-Users] FAQs I made some more changes (sorry :/) to 'plain it down' some.

Re: [DQSD-Users] Autocomplete issues
Dan,That is certainly something that should go in the FAQ. I have never been able to get autocomplete to work consistently, so I just turned it off. Not sure what all its idiosyncrasies are.Glenn - Original Message - From: Martin, Daniel To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 1:08 PM Subject: [DQSD-Users] Autocomplete issues Ijustrealizedwhy autocomplete works for some and not for others. Autocomplete is not valid on a textarea. DQSDD by default has multiline=true, in which case search.htm outputs a textarea. Setting autocomplete=true will do absolutely nothing without setting multiline=false. I don't know what the solution isbut it might be worth mentioning in the comments for autocomplete (and perhaps the FAQ too). Perhaps everyone knew that already but me, but noone mentioned it when I asked why autocomplete doesn't work for me. A question I have about autocomplete, does anyone know why it will NOT autocomplete URLs? ie, type in www.google.com and then type it again - it will not autocomplete. But it autocompletes searches just fine. Strange. -Dan
Re: [DQSD-Users] FAQs
I like the HTML better too, I think. I don't think we should start distributing the FAQ. This is *such an* internet-centric app, that 99% of the time folks shouldn't have any trouble going to the one and only FAQ at SF. You might take a look at http://notesbydave.com/toolbar/doc.htm and get some ideas for questions there. There's probably some stuff there that could be incorporated into it. There's probably some stuff there that is also out-of-date. You could even display some of the pictures by linking to Dave's site. I'd be curious to get Dave's thoughts on this. - Original Message - From: Glenn Carr [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 1:20 PM Subject: Re: [DQSD-Users] FAQs I like the HTML better too, I think.

Yep, exactly what I mean. Typing testENTER results in a LF, and no search is spawned. I'm going to upgrade at home this evening, and I'll let you know if this is reproduceable across machines.

[DQSD-Users] OT: Questions regarding DQSDTools ActiveX Object
Title: Message Hi guys, this is really off-topic but I'm really at a dead end here with this problem. Bascially, I'm creating an ActiveX object that will be called by a script in my webpage. In the COM object, I need to access the IWebBrowser2 interface and this code is implemented in IOleObjectWithSite::SetSite(IUnknown* pUnkSIte), exactly like how DQSDTools did it. However, when I tested my object, GetSite would fail. Any ideas?? Cheers Sidney Here's the code in question: HRESULT hr; m_spUnkSite = pUnkSite; CComPtrIServiceProvider spSrvProv;if (FAILED(hr = GetSite(IID_IServiceProvider, (void**)spSrvProv)))return hr; CComPtrIWebBrowser2 spWebBrowser;if (FAILED(hr = spSrvProv-QueryService(SID_SWebBrowserApp, IID_IWebBrowser2, (void**)spWebBrowser)))return hr;
