How to make search results open in same window?

Summary by Jkmartindale

Version 3.0 added this as the default. In previous versions this can be accomplished by editing a line in GoogleSiteSearch.content.default.html from customSearchControl.setLinkTarget(google.search.Search.FILTERED_CSE_RESULTSET); to customSearchControl.setLinkTarget(google.search.Search.LINK_TARGET_SELF);.

Thank you for the extension. I wanted to know if it is possible to have search results open in same winodow/tab when clicked. As of now it opens in a new window/tab instead of just taking user to the page. Is this something that can be implemented?

I'd be interested in this too.

Anyone have any ideas?

OK, I've managed to solve it.

Edit the GoogleSiteSearch.content.default.html

Change the line: customSearchControl.setLinkTarget(google.search.Search.FILTERED_CSE_RESULTSET);

To: customSearchControl.setLinkTarget(google.search.Search.LINK_TARGET_SELF);

The latest release (3.0) changed the CSE API used, and now defaults to same window/tab.
