Block: Ajax Google Search Block

Type: Block

Requires: Moodle 1.7 or later

Status: Contributed

Maintainer(s): Julian Ridden

This block allows users to search Google and have th results display inside the block itself. This means students don't have to leave the site to search for additional research materials. Links, when clicked on, will open in a new window.

When a search is conducted the student can also choose to see results from the web or based just on Google's search of the current Moodle site. If access to Google is open in your site settings this can be a very powerful tool.

This does require you to setup a Google AJAX search API key. Once the block is installed, go to Admin->Modules->Blocks and edit the settings of this block. Instructions on how to get the key and where to enter it are supplied there.

	Hi, This is the first time i'm intalling a plugin and actually I don't have a clue what to do? I don't seem to find general documentation for installing plugins. So, I can't install this pluguin.

	Hi Stevens. I have downloaded it. According to the README.txt file i have uploaded it. But in a particular course, in the block menu, no google block is displayed...i have tried with moodle 1.9.3. please give me a detailed documentation...

Ok, there is a big problem with the coding on this project. If you use this on your home page and you are also using any side forms as blocks you will notice that it takes the focus. This is such bad practice. To to rectify it find the following function:

function kd(e) {

// make it work on FF and IE

if (!e) e = event;

// use ESC to clear the search results

if (e.keyCode == 27)

searchControl.clearAllResults();

// get the input field

if (query == null)

query = document.getElementById(\'query\');

// and move the focus in there

query.focus();

}

Change the line:

query = document.getElementById(\'query\');

// query = document.getElementById(\'query\');

Done...

	Sorry you need to do the following otherwise you will get a JS error. // if (query == null) // query = document.getElementById(\'query\'); // and move the focus in there // query.focus(); Commenting the whole If statement and the Query.Focus

hey everyone.
Steve ,Your last code solved the problem! thanks.

I've noticed that when the block is in the front page and you login to the website, some blocks turned to be "text-align: center" instead of what they supposed to be , right or left (depend).
have you notice it ?or it's just me

please let me know. I think the fix is in the style.css of this block in the "extras" folder.

just to change to this:

body
{
/**text-align: center;**/
}

please check this and let me know if it happened to you too.

	Miki, i forgot to mentioned that. When i first installed this Block i was like... Why the hell is everything centering. Glad my edit helped.
