One problem with iframing the google image search is that you would still need to get the selected URL from the iframe. I think the better approach would be to develop an actual widget that uses the official Google API for image searches: https://developers.google.com/image-search/v1/devguide This would not be trivial, but would give us complete control over the interaction and presentation of the search, as well as programmatic access to the URLs of the search results, which could then be used with some kind of widget (e.g. <$google>...</$google>), that would cycle through the search results and use the widget content to generate output (or perform other actions, like setting tiddler fields) using 'search results' variables set by the widget (e.g., $url$, $imgurl$, $width$, $height$, etc.). -e -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
