Trouble adding new search engine

[gnudawn]

I lTryike the browser. I've been trying it on my Galaxy pad 10.1, v1, running ICS.

However, I haven't had any luck trying to set Google UK as my default search engine. If I set its web address (www.google.co.uk) in the 'other' category it comes up with page not found when I try to do a search! It seems to need a string after the address, which is a pain to have to put in manually.

Can you make it simpler to add new search engines?

In your case, you should put http://www.google.co.uk/m?q=%s

I know this is not user-friendly, but it may be very difficult to have a simple and generic user interface for this, because all search engines may have their own query url type. I'll try to think about it throught.

Hi

Thanks for the quick response :-)

That works fine, thank you. I can see your problem, with all the search
engines having different query formats.

I'm very impressed with your browser - it is working very well on my
tablet. I had a problem initially with my home page, the BBC's news page.
It would load, but then disappear, leaving a white screen. Disabling
Adblock solved that.

Hi,

Instead of completly disabling the adblocker, you can put the page to its white list. In the addons page, select the adblock addon, then click on "Settings", in the menu select "Add", and type a sub part on the url of the page you want to allow. For instance, "bbc.co.uk", will disable adblock for all url from the bbc.co.uk domain, including sub domains.

And i have an idea to propose more search engines in a more flexible way, maybe it will be in next version ;).

Closing this, the new UI for search engines will be in next version.
