Search box help

I recently added some "flipping books" to my website and when they are added they create a random text file. These are showing up in my web search on the site. Is there anyway to limite the search to top 2 or 3 results? It seems these always show up as the 4th result, so if I can limite it to top two or three it will help with my problem. Unless there is a way to mark the page as unsearchable. That would be optimal.
Thanks

Are you trying to setup a search against your sites database?
DW has behaviors for that. If you are trying to search the entire
site, DW won't do that. You'll need to use an additional product or
leverage one of the big search engines.

Help menu "Search" box missing in Dreamweaver 5.5 for Mac

I've just upgraded from CS3 to CS5.5 on Mac OS 10.6.8 and am still finding my way around the new menus. The easiest way to find a menu command is usually to use the spotlight type "search" box that appears at the top of the help menu, which flags up exactly were each command is when you type in it's name. However, while the search box is there in my other CS5.5 applications it's missing from Dreamweaver. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
I have tried the obvious things like repairing permissions and rebooting and have also got Spotlight to re-index my hard disk in case the fault lay there, but it didn't help.
Just to clarify, here's how the help menu looks in Dreamweaver with the "search" box missing.
And here's how the "search" box appears in the other CS5.5 applications.

You need to use F1 key to launch this window:

Help with creating a search box

Lo,
I am making a website using dreamweaver 8 and was wondering
if anyone could help me in making a simple search box. If your
wondering what i mean when i say search box, i mean a text field
where you can enter a search subject and a button to submit the
search. Not unlike the search areas you see on most popular
websites. So far I've been able to make the text field and button
but i am having trouble with scripting them so that they actually
preform a search. I'm guessing that I will have to make a new page
that to display search results, but other that that i'm pretty much
in the dark about how to go about it. Anyone who could help me out
or show me where I could get help, I would really appriciate
it!

Thats a good one Nancy, might look into that for an upcoming
client.
Atomz have one as well, customizable too.

HELP!!!...Firefox 4...STOP cursor focus from going to Bing search box????

I just installed Firefox 4....Now every time I open firefox the cursor will automatically jump to the bing search box.
I want it to start and stay inside the address bar.
A long time ago I had this same problem and searched online and found a solution. I don't remember exactly what it was, but it was something like going into about:config and switching some settings inside there. That fixed the issue and ever time I would open Firefox my cursor would START and STAY in the address bar.
Can anyone help me figure this out again? I don't want any add ons or extensions, I want it back to the way it was this morning before I upgraded to version 4.
Thanks in advance!

***SOLVED***
I finally found the solution...
I have a Windows 7 64bit laptop, but this should work for Vista users as well...possibly XP users too, if you switch a couple of the folders around, if you're an advanced user you shouldn't have a problem....
add this code to your firefox '''''"prefs.js"''''' file, you can find pref.js here, just follow the steps...
C:\Users\<you>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\f9cunhcx.default\prefs.js]]
Now add this line to the bottom of the list. Keep in mind for changes to take effect you must have Firefox closed, otherwise it'll just over write any changes you attempt to make and nothing new will happen.
'''user_pref("capability.policy.default.HTMLInputElement.focus", "noAccess");'''
After adding the above line, save the pref.js file and reopen Firefox, you'll now notice your cursor won't be in the search box. You'll have to manually put the cursor to where you want it to be. I have my home page set to www.msn.com it would drive me nuts that as soon as I open the page my cursor focus would go to the bing search bar. It wouldn't be so bad if it went to the google search bar in the top right hand corner...but anyways I hope this helps someone else out. If it does please leave a comment on your experience for the next person.
Thanks,
James

"Mac Help" Search Box is suddenly missing!!

Out of the blue when I access Mac Help the screen no longer displays the search box and magnifying glass icon. Everything else is there but it means the only way I can get help is to try and find something that matches my question in the Index. This is not always good enough. Anyone got any ideas how to fix this?

Found the answer to this one via "The X Lab" as listed on someone else's post. Followed instructions to change Library prefs and now it's working again

Help menu search box missing

In every program, I'm missing the useful little search box in the help menu. This is what it looks like:
I first noticed this when I started up Brackets. My uptime was 14 days, and some programs were still working (like Terminal), but every new one I opened had this problem. I tried doing killall SystemUIServer, which didn't work, and restarting didn't fix it either. Clicking the highlighted portion closes the "Help" menu and highlights it until another menu is accessed.
I miss this!
Anyone know what I could do to get it back?

Woo, maybe we can figure this out!
The QuickLook plugins I was talking about are QLColorCode, QLMarkdown, QLStephen, and Suspicious Package. I doubt any of them have much to do with it.
I've been using AppCleaner and Alfred forever, never Quicksilver. Alfred has one workflow that lets you search for actions in a program's menus, which boils down to an AppleScript. This provides most of the functionality of the help search bar, but causes some apps including Chrome and Photoshop to crash (for which accessing the Help menu makes them crash as well).
I also have Mountain Tweaks, and I think I had Onyx at some point. I prefer the one-line "defaults write..." commands, and I've done too many to keep track of, but they don't usually cause any damage... I think BetterTouchTool may be the culprit but I have no idea why this would persist after removal with AppCleaner unless it left some kext lying around, and I don't know too much about managing those.
The first thing I tried when I noticed this was to do "killall SystemUIServer" (which didn't work of course) and I still think an app interacting with SystemUIServer is causing this. If you don't use iStat Menus it's probably not responsible, although it does use menucracker to behave like a system menubar icon. I've had it for too long to really be suspicious.

Adobe Community Help search box is black. Can't see what I type for inquiry.

When I click on help in Photoshop or Bridge
CS5 the Community Help search box appears, but the entire left column is black. I can't see what I type or see any results, although they're there (I can click at random in that black column and I get some result on the right). Anyone know how to fix that?

I uninstalled Air and Flash, then downloaded and reinstalled each of them.
Clicking on Help in Bridge now results is black backgrounds on the top row (left and right), and when I type in a search term it appears in white. However, I get no results from my inquiry (I typed in "photo", among others). Anything else I could try? Help was never very helpful, but at least it was someplace to start....

When I use the Norton Safe Search box in Firefox 3.6.19 the letters that I type group together and disappear behind the search button at the end of Norton Safe Search....any help?

I don't know how much more I can add...However, when I type in the Norton Safe Search box up to the search button in Norton Safe Search I can continue to type but I can't see what is being typed because it doesn't allow me to see the trailing end of what I'm typing. This along with the fact that the letters and words don't always automatically advance a space, they group together as I'm typing and I have to stop, provide a space and continue once again. This only happens in Mozilla Firefox, I'm using Firefox 3.6.19. This doesn't happen in the Norton Safe Search Box in Internet Explorer

Maybe another extension that you have installed is causing that problem with that Norton Safe Search add-on.
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes 
Disable all other extensions and see if Norton works correctly. 
I so, start enabling extensions one at a time until you find the culprit.
If not, create a new Profile and verify that Norton is the only extension that appears in the new Profile and see if it works correctly. 
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows
If not, the problem is with the Norton add-on.

Who Decided to Combine the Search Box and Address Bar?

A very wise person once said:
"Make everything as simple as possible, but no simpler!"
That fundamental rule of design has been volated with Internet Explorer 9.
I've been using IE9 for about a month now, trying to get used to all the new things. Performance-wise it's nice, and the changes to security are welcome. Okay, so the color-management is half baked, and it still has its problems, but I guess
it's an improvement.
But what idiot decided to make the search box and the address field one and the same?
You think I'm being petty? Go try to research what a particular file is - for example, go see if you can find info on "bib.dll".
It wants to make it into a URL. It's not a URL. It may LOOK like one, but it's a name, honest!
Putting quotes around it doesn't help. Maybe I'm missing the advanced syntax it takes to get such a thing to be a search term instead of a URL. Even if so, how is this an improvement or simplification? It's certainly not intuitively obvious how
to force a search, short of dredging up a link to Google and typing info in there directly.
Doing a search and typing in an address are two FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT THINGS.
And hey, it's not a big deal that you can no longer see what it was you searched for, and maybe even edit it and search again. No, because now the search engine pages have to waste space to put up a box showing what you just searched for, since it's
now GONE out of the address field.
How does stuff like this pass a design review?
And to think the Microsoft Engineers worked extra hard to take it out.
You Engineers at Microsoft need to take the product back from your moronic marketing people and make it actually work right.
-Noel

Ed, with 36 years software engineering experience, I know the difference between the difficulty of adapting to change and when something just isn't right.
This isn't right. Ever hear the phrase "apples and oranges" to describe two things that don't go together? That concept fits well here.
You say that thinking along the lines of "you no longer had to think about which box you want to type into" helped justify the change.
Is there something wrong with thinking? This is akin to saying, "you no longer had to think about which nozzle at the gas station to fill your tank from".
Diesel doesn't work in a gas engine. Nor does the water from the garden hose.
You say "both methods of typing work in the one box". But they don't, logically! Did you actually read this thread?
Is there something wrong with logic?
Alas, what the simple users of the general public want and what experienced computer users need are clearly two different things, and it's clear looking back that this move simply marked another step in Microsoft's clear intent
to walk away from making serious computer operating systems that actually
work. Windows 8 is testament to that (and don't tell me you haven't noticed all the negative response). Other such things include Windows Search - which is designed to be unable to actually do an exhaustive search... Even going
back as far as hiding file extensions by default. And don't get me started on the use of telemetry to justify deprecating such things as Windows Backup.
Do you understand the difference between leading and following? Which, as a concept, would you say is better? You need to stay the hell away from trying to emulate what Google does. You can do better! If you want a different
example, follow Firefox - it still has a search box. Even Apple - known for dumbing things down to the level of the family dog - stil puts a search box in Safari.
I don't mean to be critical of your response, Ed, but this is a good example of "the operation was a success but the patient died".
Thank goodness there are 3rd party developers who are struggling to put back functionality Microsoft keeps removing. But then Microsoft removes the APIs they use. That's not going to keep!
P.S., Watch the film "Idiocracy" some time.

Url does not show up in address bar...and when i type in a search box, the cursor jumps up to the address bar automatically

I'm not sure what happened. However, I can never see the URL in the address bar anymore.
I go from page to page, and the URL shows only for a split second, then disappers.
All the address bar says is "Search or enter address"
I copy and paste a lot of URL links for work, so this makes it very painful and a hassle now.
Where now i need to go back, right click on a link, and do "copy link location".
Where as i used to just go up to the address bar and copy the URL.
Also, I notice now when I start typing on certain search boxes.
The cursor automatically jumps to the URL address bar as soon as I start typing. Which is really annoying.
It will only do it once it seems....but its annoying when i try to type a search...only to see that i've been typing in the URL address box cus it jumped up there.
PLEASE HELP!!!!

Try some basic troubleshooting.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode". 
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
