[DQSD-Users] Update to A9 for generic use
By default, A9 does some tracking on you. There is a generic version of A9 that
doesn't track (generic.a9.com). This update to the A9 search adds a switch for generic
searches. Plus, it handles the query string better, due to the quirky way A9 handles
the form submit event.

Gregory Krohne

Re: [DQSD-Users] Update to A9 for generic use
Hi Gregory,
Do you need to have 2 forms when all you're doing is a
simple get? You could just call openSearchWindow with
either generic.a9.com/query or a9.com/query?
Just wondering,
Brent

[DQSD-Users] newbie question
Has anyone created a search for dexonline.com? How difficult would this one be? Thanks, Doug Gennetten --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

RE: [DQSD-Users] newbie question
Have you tried it yourself? Glenn Carr has created an excellent tool to help you out... it does 99% of the work for you. It is the DQSD Search Wizard and you can learn about it and download it here: http://www.dqsd.net/searchwizard.htm Also try looking at how a few of the other searches are written to help you out some. With the wizard it really isn't rocket science and I think you'll get some pride and excitement about contributing to the effort yourself. Let us know if you try this and still can't get it. Someone will gladly whip one up then.
