IDEA: One click to add to search url date defining parameters
« on: September 08, 2009, 10:31 PM »
The google search url below has a number of entries that describe how to add a string to the end of the search query in the ADDRESS BAR that will filter results within time periods (by dates). It looks like this   &as_qdr=d 

http://www.google.co...;tbs=qdr:y&tbo=1

The "idea" is to have a way of adding this with one tap.

a bookmarklet can be used to do that.

javascript:if(top.location.href.indexOf(%22google%22)!=-1){location.href=top.location.href+%22&as_qdr=y15%22};

Spot On lanux128.  Thank you.  A simple matter of copying the script and dragging it to a bookmark "bar".  Of course it's only simple if you have someone who knows help.  Thanks again.
