News!! Custom Search Engine Improvements

Google guide keep announced version 2 of the "custom search element" - this is the "thing" that lets y'all put a custom-search tool inwards your blog (and whatsoever other website).

Important features are:
  • Search UI is rendered based on the settings stored on the Google CSE servers ... whatsoever configuration changes y'all brand inwards the CSE command panel ...[are shown]  on your spider web pages the side past times side fourth dimension they reload. ...
  • All chemical gene code is loaded asynchronously for reduced page charge times.
  • Client-side customization allows y'all to overwrite global CSE settings on a per-page dry reason ...

Faster charge fourth dimension is real welcome - I've been noticing that custom search gadgets guide keep a long fourth dimension to load, relative to other things on my blogs.

And the get-go characteristic seems real handy - it agency non having to copy-and-paste novel CSE code whenever y'all alter a CSE using the command panel. But this has a price: the existing code (in the best pick for Bloggers) had two parts - 1 for where the seach box goes, as well as 1 for where the search results go. In the novel code, at that topographic point are still these 2 parts, simply each 1 has 2 sections: 1 department that needs to survive added to the header as well as 1 to the house (usually a widget for Bloggers). That means:
  • Four form out pieces of code to install
  • Installing agency editing the template equally good equally adding a gadget
  • If y'all alter your template, y'all necessitate to remember to re-install the CSE code too. 

That said, I'm non certain if the get-go code sections necessitate to become into the header, or whether they could beside the other parts, peradventure alongside a loss of speed - whatsoever advice is welcome.

Lastly, Google says that the existing CSE code volition proceed to survive supported for at 1 time (although there's no trend to teach it from them whatsoever more, they are at 1 time entirely supplying the updated code) - simply that this won't final forever.   So sooner or later, y'all volition necessitate to update whatsoever custom-search(es) on your blog.
