  • Using Google's Targeted Site Search Protocol To Search My Site

    Updated: 2011-09-16 16:49:00
    The search form on my site (top-right at the time of this writing) used to display Google Search results directly within the context of my site. At one time, it did this with an embedded IFrame widget. Then, for a while, I was using an XML API.

    I've really grown to love the Deferred functionality added in jQuery 1.5. Not only does it allow for new kinds of functionality, it also allows existing success and error handlers to be bound in an easier-to-understand, less condensed format. One thing that I never really understood, however, was the pipe() method, added in jQuery 1.6. While I sort of understand the concepts of Decoration and Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP), I was never able to connect that to the use of Deferreds. Then, it ... ead More raquo;

What he wanted to do was replace one of the text nodes, leaving th ... ead More raquo;
