there is a "standard" part of the search string to which we can insert some text, but I am not 100% sure that this is x characters from the start each time a search is run.

 

 

is it possible to find the string i.e. "en" and replace with "en&safe=active" without destroying the remainder of the URI?

 

 

example with no safe search

 

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENGB268&q=halibut&meta=

 

 

example with safe search

 

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&safe=active&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENGB268&q=halibut&meta=

 

 

thestring "&safe=active" always comes after hl=en (in this case)

 

 

any help?
