Search Tools Quick Update

Written by Nicola on 19th July, 2008

Ok, I’ve finished the N64 Store Demos but I’ve noticed an issue. I’ve already prepared some limited edition search engines for various systems, but I’m not going to publish them until the problem is resolved.

Check the N64 or SNES demos tools. You will see half of the items on the bay: there’s something I don’t know that limits the number of words the engine can search. So, Link, help me! Check the HTML code and you’ll notice many more keywords than the ones that appears on the published search.

So, in the following days you’ll finally be able to use new search tools for LEs and, slowly, I’ll build a good tool for Game & Watches. Suggestions are always appreciated.

I’m not overly familiar with the ebay api but I noticed you are using different types of quotation marks around “property of nintendo” and “not for sale”, that might screw the script up. Also in the snes store you break up the search terms two ways. One way you just use )( and the other way you use ) -( , in between the sections of words.

I must use that kind of marks for my string sadly. If not, it won’t work.
