Guys, did anyone had a success doing that?
I've tried playing with
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Palm\Today\SearchPage]
"Lang"="en"
"Home"="http://www.google.com/palm?q="
but I had no success so far.
Anyone tried it?

I believe you have to hex edit the WebSearchPlugin.dll in \windows directory someone has already made a nice one with commands and stuff at pdaphonehome

Simply changing the URL works for me?

Changing the url does not work for me. May be it is because I use the plugin on Wizard. All I want to change is to have web pages from search results to be displayed in xhtml...
Is there a way? Which hex editor should I use?

I've usede the original dll dumped from Treo. I've just copied the dll to /Windows and did the nessesary registry record in .../Software/Microsoft/Today/...
I've tried to modify the library myself using 3rd party hex editor, but I could not fine any reference to google search string in the file.
I would like to have a search string like http://www.google.com/xhtml/search?mrestrict=

Try try this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Palm\Today\SearchPage]
"Lang"="xhtml"
"Home"="http://www.google.com/xhtml/search?mrestrict="
So if i searched for tree it would then read
http://www.google.com/xhtml/search?mrestrict=xhtml&q=tree
The search URL is as follows: "home"+"lang"+"&q="+search
Is there a reference in the DLL to &q=?

I have attached the dll and reg files that I've used to instal the plugin. I've created the url search string registry manually after installing the files attached.
