How to make google-search to redirect to first result (automatically) ?

Hello,
I have just installed the latest version of FF on my windows 7.
When I search using google-search by either:
1. Writing somethong in the adress bar and pressing enter
2. Writing something in the search box (thats on the same line as the adress bar)
I am not being redirected automatically to the first result.
How can I change it so that I will go to the first result automatically after pressing enter ?
Thanks in advance for the help!

hello belgiamit, you can do it for the address bar the following way:
enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up), search for the preference named '''keyword.url''' & double-click and set that entry to
http://www.google.com/search?btnI=I%27m+Feeling+Lucky&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=

  • How to make Google-search bar to go in to localised Google-search page?

    Hi!
    How do I change Google-toolbar search? In the Firefox 4.0 the Google-toolbar search was going to my localised Google page.
    I'm using Finnish version of Firefox and when I search with Google toolbar, it goes to english version of the Google page.
    example. I want to search from Google with language Finnish, type in some text in Google toolbar and it opens English version of the Google and results also are english-based.

    I have accidently double posted this (since I didn't see that the first time I tried it posted the question).
    The question has been answered in the other post

  • How to make Google custom search results appear on a new page?

    Anybody got any idea how to make the search results appear on a separate page? I'm using the Google custom search to get generated code to place on my pages, after providing some 'guidance' information on the look and feel of it. Normally, Google will provide you with a few options to choose from to determine how your results will look and by default one would choose the "two page" option whilst going thru the setup process. One page for the search box on your own page and one for the results page.
    However, if you don't want a 'google-generated' results page but want the layout that's in line with the look of your site AND have the search box already on there for any repeat searches it becomes more tricky. I tried doing it one way, which I found one a blog tutorial but so far no sucess. The 'search box' code that I inserted onto one of my pages to test didn't show up the search box at all in preview or the live page...
    Anybody got any generic code that can be adapted (that they know works) or know of any tutorial that explains how to achieve this? Preferably Google related, as I'm using its custom search.
    In addition, I believe that recently Google have deprecated the use of iframe in its search results pages so for anybody that was using an earlier version of this facility it may no longer work properly and hence the solution might have to be modified. Not an expert, so not sure how much this fact will affect the final code, just a thought.
    Any ideas/solutions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    hello adrianm12, this should be possible through the metro settings ("search"). also see [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=941292 bug 941292]...

  • How to make dynamic search items in a report?

    Hi all,
    I have two questions.
    1. How to make dynamic search (i.e without GO button) field above report to provide dynamic search by words in one field of report query?
    2. How to make similar multiply dynamic search fields on report to provide individual search by selected fields of report with refine capability (i.e any search conditions in different fields must work together as complex WHERE clause)
    Thanks in advance

    hey yuri--
    if i'm understanding your questions correctly, the easiest way to achieve the functionality you're after is to have your query criteria fields submit the page when values are entered/selected. the page should then branch back to itself using the submitted criteria in the query. because you're asking about dynamically adding in your where clause predicates, you should consider using a report region of type "SQL Query (Pl/sql Function Body Returning SQL Query)". that way you can use pl/sql to piece together your query based on the provided criteria.
    so the part of your question i'm not sure of is when your page should submit itself ("without a GO button" as you said). for your first question, it seems to be a simple matter of javascript. you want users to be able to enter search criteria into a field and have that criteria be using in the report. to facilitate that we have a few self-submitting item types such as "SelectList with Submit" and "Text Field (always submits page when Enter pressed)". for your second question, it seems that you should have a Go button for the user to indicate he's done entering in his query criteria. anyhow, that's up to you, i suppose. hopefully this response will give you the concepts you need to implement this as you'd like.
    regards,
    raj
    ps-after re-reading your post, i now realize there's a chance that you wanted users to not have to submit the page at all when filtering their result sets. if that's the case, you'd have to use javascript for that cumbersome feat. google would be a good place to go for that code.

  • How to implement google search in portal application

    Hi,
      I am using  "http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl" file to implement google search in portal application. but i am not able to get the search result. how to implement google search. is this "http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl" is vaild now ?. how to achieve the soultion.
    Regards,
    Shanthakumar.

    Hi Shanthakumar,
    The "GoogleSearch.WSDL" is no longer available as google has replaced it with the new AJAX based searching and they have eventually removed it from public use as well from 7th September 2009. So, I would imagine you would not be able to use the earlier WSDL file for google search. You might have to look in using the new "AJAX Search API". For more information have a look the following links. You can notice "No Longer Available" at the top of the page.

  • How do get rid of the google search box when I first open Firefox?

    How do get rid of the google search box when I first open Firefox?

    Firefox 4 and later versions use a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it.
    That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
    If you want a home page with extras then set another page as the home page like www.google.com as used in Firefox 3 versions.

  • Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

    Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

    Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
    #type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
    #if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
    #Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
    #in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
    #close the about:config tab and test

    About Google toolbar............
    Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • How to stop Google Search Redirected to Bing

    All my Google searches switch to Bing, even though Google is the default search engine in Safari preferences.  This started several days ago (Dec 30, I believe) when I tried to download a movie from the French TV site, TV5. 
    I went to my applications.  I did have an application that was downloaded that day.  I put that application  into the trash, but I have not emptied the trash and could recover that application.
    I did notice in the Safari preferences that the Search engines listed are now 1. Google, 2.Yahoo, 3. Bing and 4. DuckDuckGo.  I assume that DuckDuckGo is an emerging search engine.
    A Symantic scan did not find anything related to this problem.
    There is a "search.strtpoint.com" statement that appears and redirects my Google search to Bing.  I was able to copy and paste the statement to a text file.  The total statement is:  http://search.strtpoint.com/results.html?c=35&v=insMac&t=1412&ap=97963554&r=ab3c cf12be2240f5a0926c759fb396c0&spt=ext&q=
    Any ideas on how to eliminate the redirect statement?
