Search For Name Containing Ampersand In Google Places API
Aug 11, 2014
I'm using the Google Places API to discover information on a restaurant. [URL] ....
I need my name parameter to contain an & because I am looking for D'Agostino's Pizza & Pub. But I am not sure what my URL needs to look like, because my requests are returning no matches. I am trying:
maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=41.8957646,-87.6553512&radius=5000&types=restaurant|food&name=D'Agostino's Pizza %26 Pub&key=<mykey>. But is that even right?
I believe the search should return results, because in google if you type "D'Agostino's restaurant north ogden avenue Chicago IL", it's a perfect match there.
I have to work with the Google Places API, specifically Zagat Ratings. It is "premium data" meaning I can't just be a billing user (which is what I am now), I have to be an enterprise user (which it looks like you have to buy a license or otherwise pay to become). How exactly how one becomes an enterprise user? If you happen to have used Zagat ratings, any example of data that comes back from a query so I can take a look and be sure it suits our needs?
If you want the details, this is what I've done (since beginning research on this on Friday).
1. I obtained an API key and in order to do so I created a project (by logging into my google account). My project name is the default "My Project". Then I created a new browser key. With this key, I was able to post requests as below:
[URL] ....
The reply has no Zagat ratings, though. I determined this is because I'm not an Enterprise user: To obtain Zagat data you have to become an enterprise user; just being a "billing user" is not enough.
2. So I wanted to see definitively what kind of a user am I. One hit I got said "Visit the APIs Console and log in with your Google Account", then "Select the project that was created for you when you signed up. The project name will start with Google Maps APIs for Business". I didn't quite understand this second part, and how it presumes to know what my project name is, especially since mine is just the simple default "My Project". Finally it says: "The Places API - Zagat Content service should be enabled (mine is not. Actually, I have no such thing). The Places API service should be disabled (mine is enabled).
I have to refactor really huge project with a lot of user controls where each has a lot of element sometimes with no unique id. I mean that in one page Image element has ID="img" as well as DevExpress popup control (containig image) in another page. When I try to search concrete ID, I found many of them in code behind files (.cs) but I need only these which I can find in *.ascx files. Can I do such thing?

How do i get the results from GSA and format it (results will be in XML) and present to the user like google search results (Title, summary ...) in C#.
I want to add a search to my ASP.NET app, and I would like to show suggestions in a window just below the text box where the user is typing (as they type), just like Google search. I think it has to be done with AJAX, right ?

So I have a website that I recently made changes to, and one of the changes was removing a page from the site. I deleted the page, it doesn't exist anymore.
However, when you search for my site, one of the results is the page that I deleted. People are clicking on the page and getting an error.
How do I remove that page from the search results?
how could I include the functionlaity in my ASP.NET MVC site to allow users to search and download image from Google. Basically, I am planning to build the search interface where user can type image name and click search. It should then return the image set and user should be able to select any of them.

visit google and search "manchester university" u'll see:
StudentNet Job Opportunities PostGraduate StaffNet etc.. and textfield/ and a button

I have a textbox and what I would like to implement is basically a situation similar to what you have in google when you type in a word. In otherwords,
in the textbox when you type in J, it should generate a list of names that starts with O in alphabetical order, then next when you type in o, so that now you have Jo, it should generate a list of names instead that now starts with Jo in alphabetical order, then again when you type in h, it should generate a list of names that starts with Joh and so on.

I am using asp.net 2010, and I would like to know how can I go about completely hiding a particular page from search engines, similar to how Facebook's security settings are set (for example, if I search for my real name, my fb page will now show up in google).
