Google Search with NoFileHtml extension

MIT App Inventor Help
1

Hi everyone, first of all sorry to bring out this old topic, and second, I am having trouble with this extension, I am entering the correct HTML code for a search engine but when I am testing it, as soon as I click the search button the text I have entered in the textbox disappears and nothing happens, I would be glad if someone would be kind enough to help me with this.

My HTML code-

<script async src="https://cse.google.com/cse.js?cx=a51e72848a5aa49ee">
</script>
<div class="gcse-search"></div>
<div class="gcse-searchresults-only">

Thanks and Regards.

It is the view in google sites, but in the app, enhanced by google does not come.

4

that text does not come but everything else works fine?

5

That text does not come and the following error happens-

6

oh, so the search results don't appear

have you included <!DOCTYPE html> at the beginning of your code??

7

nope i have not, is it necessary ?

8

this is the code I use

9

neccesary if you want to use advanced feature like google search

10

Allright, I will add it.

11

and the code you posted only contains the script and div tag which may not work, consider putting them inside body tag and body tag inside html tag

12

all right thanks a lot

13

did it work??

14

i did not check it yet because the companion in not available, but when i will, I will send a PM.

Should it be like this @AyProductions ?

<html>
<body>
<!DOCTYPE html><script async src="https://cse.google.com/cse.js?cx=a51e72848a5aa49ee">
</script>
<div class="gcse-search"></div>
<div class="gcse-searchresults-only">
</body>
</html>

You should have a properly structured html to load into the extension. It is not designed to accept fragments.

Have you tried the run js block in the webviewer?

Try -

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script async src="https://cse.google.com/cse.js?cx=a51e72848a5aa49ee">
</script>
<div class="gcse-search"></div>
<div class="gcse-searchresults-only">
</body>
</html>
