Cool. I like it.

Good as an option, I don't know if it should be the default though.

I picked a pretty circuitous route and arguably cheated slightly, but I'm going to get there

VS needs this option. It would hopefully result in less dumb threads being made.

Absolutely. Saves me from typing in "site:volvospeed.com" every time I want to do a search :lol:

However, don't open it in a little window on the page. Just go to the google search results page.

Both those ideas are going to cause 3 tabs or windows to be generated.

Then just leave it as it is on the S40 forum.

While you have a thread open, and you mention windows/tabs, links to external sites opens a new tab (like it should), and also directs the tab that I was browsing VS in to the site as well, so it's open in two tabs, and VS is gone :lol:

Options are great. I say not much debate to be had there. Just on how it should be implemented.
