Nice job

While testing the mod we did find that the mod uses whatever language the browser is in. May be worth noting down

For sure this one attracted my attention. Nice mod.

Just a suggestion, before appending the attr on search field you can make a check whether the browser support the voice search feature or not.

I was wondering why it doesn't work for me on any web browser and I think that there is error in install.php file.
You have:

Code Select Expand


// Now integration hooks!
$hooks = array(
'integrate_pre_include' => '$sourcedir/Subs-SpeechSearch.php',
'integrate_load_theme' => 'ssearch_load_theme'
);

but file Subs-SpeechSearch.php does not exist. There is file named Subs-VoiceSearch.php.

Change file name Subs-VoiceSearch.php => Subs-SpeechSearch.php and it works fine to me now

Great mod

I've just installed this on my test forum and tried it in Chrome.  I see the microphone ok and click it, I get the message "Speak now".  I speak and the sound registers on the sound bar thing, then it whirlies while it thinks and produces a yellow border round the search box.  That's it.  The search box doesn't actually populate so no search.  However it works great on Advanced search.  Any ideas?

Edit: Tried it on my default theme and it's ok, so it must be my custom theme (Actualism by Crip) not knowing what to do with it.  Now I've played with this mod a little, is there any way to make it recognise a British accent?
