Hi guys!

Our homepage switched to the Google Customer Search, as we decided to present the "after rendering" code in the preview of the search results.

For this I created a TikiWiki module. I would like to present it for you in order to get new suggestions and your opinion about this MOD/module.

You can download the MOD from here: http://umija.org/mods/Dist/modules-google-cse-0.1.tgz

On our page you could find the German Google CSE in TikiWiki Howto.

A short summary about this Howto:
The module could be installed automatically if you use http://umija.org/mods as your MODs Server. After that you will find a Module with the name google-cse in your "modules - admin" menue. Select it and add the following three parameters in the parameters field:

• id = the long number provided to you by google
• site = URL to the site where the results should be presented
• size = the size of the text field

After that you should create the wiki page, that you insert to site parameter and insert the following content to it:

{div id="results_YOUR ID HERE"} {/div}
{JS()}
    var googleSearchIframeName = 'results_YOUR ID HERE';
    var googleSearchFormName = 'searchbox_YOUR ID HERE';
    var googleSearchFrameWidth = 600;
    var googleSearchFrameborder = 0;
    var googleSearchDomain = 'www.google.com';
    var googleSearchPath = '/cse';
{JS}
{JS(file='http://www.google.com/afsonline/show_afs_search.js'}{JS}

NOTE: You should exchange the "{" "}" brackets around the div part with the ">" "<" brackets.

Cheers,
Eduard
