google search site bookmarklet

[gwtc]

Here is a google search site bookmarklet. This lets you search a
certain website using google. What I want is the same thing, but to
search a certain geocities site. When you use the current
bookmarklet, the search takes you to site:www.geocities.com instead of
the specific site you want to search. Can someone modify this for me,
to search specific geocities sites?

Thanks for your help and btw I'm using Mozilla Suite and Firefox.

The bookmarklet is:

javascript:(fun ction(){var
h,q;h=location. hostname;q=(win dow.getSelectio n ? window.getSelec tion()
: document.getSel ection ? document.getSel ection() :
document.select ion.createRange ().text);q=prom pt('Search \''+h+'\'
using Google:',q);if( q!=null){if(h){ q='site:'+h+'
'+q;}location=' http://www.google.com/search?q='+enco deURIComponent( q);}})();

'+q;}location=' http://www.google.com/search?q='+enco deURIComponent( q);}})();

I gather you want to add the pathname up to the first '/' slash after the
hostname. In code (mind the wrap):

h==location.hos tname + location.pathna me.substring( 0,
location.pathna me.substring(1) .indexOf( '/' )+1 )

That would give you strings like 'www.geocities. com/swaisman' or
'www.geocities. co.jp/goofy_trip'.

Thanks ivo, but I'm not javascripted minded. Where do I add those lines?

Find in your code the bit that sais:
h=location.host name
and add immediately after that:
+ location.pathna me.substring( 0,
location.pathna me.substring(1) .indexOf( '/' )+1 )

So you get:
javascript:(fun ction(){var h,q;h=location. hostname +
location.pathna me.substring( 0, location.pathna me.substring(1) .indexOf(
'/' )+1 );q=(window.get Selection ? window.getSelec tion() :
document.getSel ection ? document.getSel ection() :
document.select ion.createRange ().text);q=prom pt('Search \''+h+'\' using
Google:',q);if( q!=null){if(h){ q='site:'+h+'
'+q;}location=' http://www.google.com/search?q='+enco deURIComponent( q);}})();

Untested, but should work. I 'm not geocities minded.
