Hi guys,

This is culmination of 13 hours of google searching and I still have not figured out a way to do this in chrome. I am turning to you guys!

Basically, I want to be able to type "am" (short for anime meta) and a search string in my Chrome address bar OR an a small app and have it launch the resulting search entries in new tabs/windows (prefer tabs).

For example: I type am <search string> or am naruto and that will search the following sites (I replaced the search query with %s)

FakeSite1 http://www.FakeSite1.com/search/search?searchitem="+s+"&searchradio=releases&submit.x=0&submit.y=0
FakeSite2 http://FakeSite2.me/browse.php?q=%s
FakeSite3 http://www.FakeSite3.org/?page=search&cat=0_0&filter=0&term="+s+"

It will popup 3 popups (or prefer tabs) with Bakaupdates / BakaBT / Nyaatorrents
here's some background threads where this was achievable in Opera. I cannot get any of these working in Chrome. :( I am CERTAIN this is not that hard, but I am at a loss as to how to proceed next.

Some background threads.

There are a handful of people who want this very specialized function for years. Please help!

You could do this very easily using Find and Run Robot. Once you created an "alias" to do this, you could share it with others easily as well.

UPDATE:

Found a autoit script that someone made, but tried to compile it, run it and had to force reboot my comp (lol) since it kept going without stopping. Maybe it can help

--- ---#cs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
AutoIt Version: 3.3.6.1
Author: Paul B (paul1149)(gmail...)
Script Function: open multiple search windows. Cross-browser functionality
Appears to go to last active browser. Works but sticky in IE9.
#ce ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

;Get search term from browser:
WinActivate("[REGEXPTITLE:Opera|Internet Explorer]")
Send("^c")
$searchterm = ClipGet()

; Open various search windows:
send("^t")
send("http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=" & $searchterm)
send("{ENTER}")

send("^t")
send("http://gigcat.midhudson.org/search~S1/?searchtype=X&searcharg=" & $searchterm & "&searchscope=1&sortdropdown=-&SORT=DZ&extended=0")
send("{ENTER}")

send("^t")
send("http://www.paperbackswap.com/book/browser.php?k=" & $searchterm)
send("{ENTER}")

send("^t")
send("http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p3984.m570.l1313&_nkw=" & $searchterm & "&_sacat=See-All-Categories")
send("{ENTER}")

Here are some other javascript suggestions:

--- ---javascript:(
function() {
var s = escape("%s");
var t = "Multisearch - "+s;
var yahoo = "http://www.yahoo.com/r/sx/*-http://search.yahoo.com/search?p="+s+"&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8";
var google = "http://www.google.com/search?q="+s+"&sourceid=opera&num=%i&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8";
var googlemaps = "http://maps.google.de/maps?f=q&hl=de&q="+s+"&btnG=Adressen+suchen";
var googleimages = "http://images.google.com/images?hl=de&q="+s+"&btnG=Bilder-Suche";
document.write(
"<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd'><html><head><title>"
+ t
+ "</title></head><frameset rows='50%,50%' cols='50%, 50%'><frame src='"
+ google
+ "'><frame src='"
+ yahoo
+ "'><frame src='"
+ googlemaps
+ "'><frame src='"
+ googleimages
+ "'></frameset></html>"
);
}
)()

--- ---javascript:(
function() {
var s=escape("%s");
document.location.href="http://www.yahoo.com/r/sx/*-http://search.yahoo.com/search?p="+s+"&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8";
open("http://www.google.com/search?q="+s+"&sourceid=opera&num=%i&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8");
open("http://www.altavista.com/web/results?itag=ody&q="+s+"&kgs=1&kls=0");
}
)()
