RE: [DQSD-Users] comx.xml into CVS

2005-03-08 Thread Gregory Krohne
Warning to all: My development copy of comx.xml is attached. It works fine
for me (except for King Features comics), but I have not tested it
carefully. If you want to try it, save a backup copy of your current
comx.xml.

Shawn,

  I'm still trying to get King Features comics (like Baby
  Blues) to work. They use JavaScript and the document
  referrer to deliver the comic image after the page loads.
  Anyone got any ideas how to make this work? 
 
 Can you link me to a sample comic so I can look at the 
 javascript and write a regex for it? I'm sure it's possible 
 to parse the JS as easily as the tables from most other 
 comics. I've started using the code I initially wrote for 
 RSSX for just about all the screen scraping functionality I need.

Try Baby Blues:
http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/comics/Baby_Blues.dtl
http://www.babyblues.com/

The first link may be slightly easier, since it doesn't load the image with
a 'document.write'. They both have the same problem: If the referrer isn't
correct, you get a bogus comic image.

 You can add a referer header to the xmlhttp request, after 
 .open, before .send. It'll look kinda like this:
   xmlhttpObj.setRequestHeader(referer,http://somepage;);

Get out! I didn't know you could do that on xmlhttp requests. I'll try it!

 The other alternative, though this is only effective for 
 normal searches, is to use a named target window and send two 
 requests to it, the first as the page you need as referer, 
 the second as the ultimate target. This doesn't work with 
 xmlhttp though. :(

I've been thinking about that: creating a window, redirecting to the comic
sight, retrieving the results. I haven't found an approach that works, yet.
 
 For anyone wanting to try this functionality out (and it's 
 been a long-requested feature) please get the latest 
 defer_tools.js from CVS.

I'll try it!

Regards,
Gregory Krohne

RE: [DQSD-Users] getting the history

They should already exist in a history.txt file in your DQSD install
directory... Usually C:\Program Files\Quick Search Deskbar

 Subject: [DQSD-Users] getting the history
 
 Is it possible to get the history of, say, 20 recent strings 
 typed in the DQSD input panel?  I can retrieve them one by 
 one by using the UpArrow key, but I need get them all and 
 paste in a text file.  Is this doable?
 
 Thanks,
 Jacob.

Re: [DQSD-Users] ebay change to site...

Hi Tom,

Looking at the ebay.xml file I don't see /l as an
option.  Can you elaborate on what you're doing?

FW: [DQSD-Users] error on installation--I need help

2005-03-08 Thread John W. Bairen, Jr.



Wouter,

There are3 possibilities that come to mind for 
me.

1. Some other application that you have installed already 
has Win+s as it's hotkey. If this is so, then you should be able to edit 
your local preferences file and change your DQSD hot key. Is this the 
case? When you type the windows key and s (Win+s) does anything for any 
other application happen?

2. Did you install as a system administrator or 
equivalent? I am running DQSD on WinXP Pro(SP2) without problems, and I 
even have another hotkey program installed (Auto Hotkey http://www.autohotkey.com/).

3. I'm drawing a blank, right now, about what my third idea 
was. I just can't remember it. Maybe the guys on the DQSD-Users list 
have more ideas. (maybe some script engine version stuff? or is Will 
Dean still out there? I think he originally wrote the hook 
code.)

Anyone? Oh and please 'reply to all' as I don't think 
Wouter is a part of the DQSD User list.

Wouter, you may wish to join the DQSD User list. 
There are many who are much better at helping than I am, who contribute 
regularly to the list. It really is the ultimate place to seek DQSD 
help. You can get to the DQSD User list and other lists here: http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=42081


Keep us posted as to the questions I've posted 
above.

  Alexia,
  
  I don't know why but 
  others have seen this problem before. Rebooting 
  and
  reinstalling always seems 
  to clear it up. Give it a try. If it 
  doesn't
  help let us know as 
  someone else will surely have a better 
suggestion.

  Hi
