IE Addons (Grigri's toolbrand)
Okay, I have been playing alot with Griri's toolbrand, and have some great Ideas with it, but am having some difficulties.
1> The annoying yellow splash screen steals the focus from my 'homepage' textfield. (I've built a homepahe with a google-search built in)
2> I built a "search bar" that adds similar function to it (user can select which search engine to use), but using the command:
document.main.location.href=ect.......
causes the whole thing to break. I developed a workaround that adjusts the HREF of a link to be the apropriate location, and has the target set to main. Unfortunately this dosent alow you to hit enter and make it go. You have to manualy hit the link. The two ideas i have to fix this are:
a> find a diferent way to redirect the location of main using script.
b> find a way to activate a specific link, just as if the user did it, all done by the script.
I know Grigri has dusted off his old archive of this baby, and pronounced it dead, but someone else must have an inkling of it's process. What would be perfect is if someone could tell me how to recrate the same process. Unfortunately, my coding skills are limited to REG hacks and DHTML / JavaScript.
Thanks.

Yeah, I had forgotten about that.... but the new address is configured by javascript, so I'm not sure that this will fix it without re-writing. But it definately gives me a direction to work.
