Google Slideshow of small images

david.m.gi...@gmail.com (David) — Fri, 12 mrt 2010 02:46:47 UT

So I've been trying to create a Google slideshow. I have a working
example, but for whatever reason it's a slideshow of thumbnails, not
the full size images. I'm sure there is something small that is
wrong, but I can't put my finger on it.
I've been using this as a guide: [link]

Change this:
if (parts[i][0] == 'q') {
to this:
if (parts[i].substr(0,1) == 'q') {

Thanks Geerdes for prompt reply.
According to my understanding Google Ajax search api needs a user
interface to call for next page result because there is concept of
URL, In that case how these meta search engine used these ajax search
api.
please suggest me if any idea you have.

Aside from some formatting tweaks I've got this up and running on my
test site ([link]).
But it doesn't work in IE 7 (Jeff's example doesn't work in IE7
either).
Does anybody have any ideas why that might be the case?

Hi Jeff,
Great example! That's just what I was looking for. However, my
implementation (and your example, for that matter) does not work in
Internet Explorer. Now, I wish everyone in the world used FFox or
Chrome, but the fact is that there are still a bunch of people surfing
in IE.
Would you provide some advice on getting this operational in IE?

Re: Slideshow API not working

So I looked into this issue more. My slideshow is working, it just no
longer works with my rss file. Since i am using this to manually
control our slideshow on our homepage the RSS file is hand coded. As
far as I can tell it is still a valid RSS file and this is the same
way I have always had it configured. Does the slideshow require the

Jeff,
Thanks again for your helpful example.
As for your last post, I've found the code for using CSE on two pages
via an iframe very simple and straightforward: just a few lines of <
form > for our home page and a simple < iframe > on our results page,
so I don't think it makes it more complicated for web developers. And

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for looking into this issue. Just go to the (http://
ink4less.com) website, click "Details" on one of the home page
products, then click "Add to Cart". Once in the cart, click "Checkout"
button and on that page is where you will see the problem. You'll also
notice that if you reload the page, then the security error goes away.

Directly after the line starting var customSearchControl = add the following line:
customSearchControl.setLinkTar get(google.search.Search.LINK_ TARGET_TOP);
The CSC documentation could use some info about the class methods. I'll raise this with the dev team.

When you click on a link in the search results, it opens the link in a
new window. I want it to open in the current window.

Do you have a link that we can look at to see what you're doing now? It's very difficult to tell you what to do without knowing what your page is doing right now.
