Question

My question is about the Omnibox. The think provided by the Chrome API, i wanted to know if there is a possibility to have a multiple keyword on the manifest.

I’ve thinking about a regex or something like that but i don’t really know what to do…

Answer 1

I think i’ve just find a solution.

I’ve discover that when you make a search for ‘TRY’ by using google the url is :

http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy&hl=fr&site=&source=hp&q=TRY&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&pbx=1&fp=ec3d6f66084ab746

And when it come from Chrome URL it’s :

http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=TRY

So basically if i check if there is sourceid=Chrome on the url i can redirect like this. What do you think ?

// If Google Search from the URL (sourceid)
if(URL.match('google') && parseUri(URL).queryKey['sourceid'] == 'chrome')
{
    chrome.tabs.update(tabId, { url: 'http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=' + parseUri(URL).queryKey['q'] });
    return;
} // If Bing Search from the URL (setmkt)
else if(URL.match('bing') && parseUri(URL).queryKey['setmkt'])
{
    chrome.tabs.update(tabId, { url: 'http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=' + parseUri(URL).queryKey['p'] });
    return;
}
