hi all,
i'm playing a little with resources within windows dll's.
i've modified my file shdoclc.dll to create a link to google cache directly in the page that windows shows when a web page is unavailable.
if you are able to do this yourself, here are the steps.
1.
download resource hacker from
http://www.users.on.net/johnson/resourcehacker/2.
copy and paste the file windows/system/shdoclc.dll elsewhere to modify the copy, not the original. open the copy with rh, and go to 23/http_404/your_language_id
3.
add this function into the script:
function GoogleCache(){
DocURL = document.location.href;
protocolIndex=DocURL.indexOf("://",4);
serverIndex=DocURL.indexOf("/",protocolIndex + 3);
BeginURL=DocURL.indexOf("#",1) + 1;
if (protocolIndex - BeginURL > 7)
urlresult=""
urlresult=DocURL.substring(BeginURL,serverIndex);
displayresult=DocURL.substring(protocolIndex + 3 ,serverIndex);
forbiddenChars = new RegExp("[<>**FIX**"]", "g"); // Global search/replace
urlresult = urlresult.replace(forbiddenChars, "");
displayresult = displayresult.replace(forbiddenChars, "");
document.write('<A target=_top HREF="http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:' + urlresult + '">' + displayresult + "</a>");
}
4.
add this html code at the end of the listed item:
<li id="list5">Search the requested page in the Google cache:<br> <script> GoogleCache(); </script>. </li>
5.
compile the script and save the file. reboot in dos, rename the original file and copy your modified file in place of the original. then reboot again.
if someone send me the file, i can do it for him. i can't post my modified file because all dialogs it contains are in italian language.
note: if you do this, don't tell it to bill
regards,
altosax.
