[edit] Creating a keyword search with multiple parametersCopy/Paste the following string in your bookmark's Location field. Don't forget to replace ###INSERT YOUR KEYWORD SEARCH URL HERE### with your search URL, which can now include multiple %s occurences. javascript:var%C2%A0s='%s'; url='###INSERT YOUR KEYWORD SEARCH URL HERE###'; t=''; qc=0; chunks=url.split('%s'); for(i=0; i<s.length; i++){if(s.charAt(i)=='"')qc=qc^1; t+=((s.charAt(i)==' '&&qc)?'^':s.charAt(i)); }args=t.split(/\s/); nurl=''; for(i=0; i<chunks.length; i++){nurl+=chunks[i]; if(args[i]!=undefined)%C2%A0{args[i]=args[i].replace(/\^/g,' '); nurl+=args[i]; }}location.replace(nurl,'< BR>'); (The script was was copied from an attachment in bug 124237 in Bugzilla.) [edit] UsageJust type this in Location Bar: search_keyword param1 param2 ... If one parameter contains spaces put it inside quotes. [edit] Examples[edit] finance.yahoo.comIf we would want to compare the performance of two stocks using an URL similar to this: http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?t=6m&s=%s&c=%s The bookmark URL would be javascript:var%C2%A0s='%s'; url='http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?t=6m&s=%s&c=%s'; t=''; qc=0; chunks=url.split('%s'); for(i=0; i<s.length; i++){if(s.charAt(i)=='"')qc=qc^1; t+=((s.charAt(i)==' '&&qc)?'^':s.charAt(i)); }args=t.split(/\s/); nurl=''; for(i=0; i<chunks.length; i++){nurl+=chunks[i]; if(args[i]!=undefined)%C2%A0{args[i]=args[i].replace(/\^/g,' '); nurl+=args[i]; }}location.replace(nurl,'< BR>'); If you chose the keyword compare you could compare Redhat's performance with Microsoft by writing compare rht msft [edit] GooglefightAnother example given the url for a googlefight: http://www.googlefight.com/cgi-bin/compare.pl?q1=%s&q2=%s&B1=Make+a+fight%21&compare=1&langue=us And the bookmark would be javascript:var%C2%A0s='%s'; url='http://www.googlefight.com/cgi-bin/compare.pl?q1=%s&q2=%s&B1=Make+a+fight%21&compare=1&langue=us'; t=''; qc=0; chunks=url.split('%s'); for(i=0; i<s.length; i++){if(s.charAt(i)=='"')qc=qc^1; t+=((s.charAt(i)==' '&&qc)?'^':s.charAt(i)); }args=t.split(/\s/); nurl=''; for(i=0; i<chunks.length; i++){nurl+=chunks[i]; if(args[i]!=undefined)%C2%A0{args[i]=args[i].replace(/\^/g,' '); nurl+=args[i]; }}location.replace(nurl,'< BR> '); With the keyword fight you could do a search like fight "United States" Finland |
