'''Ok sure'''

The poll is broken. You may want to fix it.

Removed because of error again. As I posted, please poll after 2 hours.

Now fixed again.

I always think tutorials or extensions don't need polls. Users can just like the post. It just doesn't look professional.

Thanks, but I see that some users poll instead of like, or vice versa. I want to get user feedback from all of them, so I added the poll.

#Off Topic

How you have made this thing
Means this block in which url is present

You mean, whether the request URL is in the file? Yes it is.

I gave a like, polls are not necessary for a tutorial/guide...

No no I mean that how that block is created in the post
Means that border kind of thing around the text of the file

I used the HTML tag kbd.

Do note that if the index socket in select list item overceeds the length of the list, you will receive a runtime error!

using <kbd> and </kbd>, like This is <kbd>This</kbd>

fun fact: the site is set to www.google.com because gordon wants to search keywords on google. if you want to search keywords on bing, use www.bing.com.

And of you want to search your own site, for example AICODE, use sites.google.com/view/appinventor-aicode/home without https or http.

There is a similar YouTube API which search content on YouTube as well. I can do a tutorial about that too.

The tutorial is perfect, however, the results that the text to speech reads to me are quite random, below I show images of my code, to see where I went wrong and what I can correct or fix.
Note:
I use a modified url with the url to do a Wikipedia search, due to how random google direct answers can be, this turned out to be more effective, however it doesn't change the fact how rare the answers get.
Thanks in advance.




The variables used in the tutorial are the same ones I use, so I didn't include them in the images.
Ignore the rest of the code in the larger block, because it's only the final part that matters, the one that includes the web viewer.

Do you mean, usually you will not get results for search?

Can you upload your AIA file for me to test? Also, did you create your own search engine through the dashboard and the API key?
