About

After coming across Jason Whitehorn's Google custom search engine, I created one that just searches on GeeksWithBlogs.net.  It can be found here.

Shown below is an example of how you can embed it into your page.  Unfortunately, as expected, GWB does not allow specifying script tags so this is not a working model.  But you can try this out for your own site and custom searches.  Or if you are Julian, the admin, you have control over this and can add this directly.  (NOTE: it is good practice of them to do so since a best practice in writing secure code is to never trust user input)

The missing component is shown below:
<script src="http://www.google.com/coop/cse/brand?form=searchbox_007539214683197832724%3Ahgocrrmiz90" type="text/javascript"></script>

You get the following error (good practice to give descriptive error messages as well):

"Post operation failed. The error message related to this problem was as follows: Illegal Characters Found "
