Google search no edit autocomplete suggestion buttons
I have just got an iPad but have found a really annoying problem with Google website. There's no arrow button for editing the autocomplete suggestions that appear when typing the search query. How am I meant to edit or add to what's suggested before searching?

It seems I am the only one on the entire planet who sees this as a major problem.
Screenshots Phone: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...2010.51.35.png iPad: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...2011.05.25.jpg The tablet version of the Google website has been poorly designed. It seems it hasn't been properly designed with touchscreen in mind and assumes all tablet keyboards have up/down arrow keys when the iPad clearly doesn't. I have found a workaround by following the guide at http://www.technipages.com/ios-chang...gent-in-safari and using an iPhone user agent string. The problem is this has a side effect of other sites also displaying phone versions of sites instead of tablet versions and only works for Safari. Does anyone know a better workaround? It's ridiculous that the arrow buttons that enable appending to suggestions are missing on the iPad. Using Google without those buttons is too much of a pain for me. |
