David Wheatley URL search (google) not actually executing search
Really simple question. We have a button that launches
http://google.com?q={!Contact.Name}
but it doesn't actually execute the search, so the user has to hit enter or click the search button on the google page. Is there syntax I can add that will 'hit enter' on the target page?

You can try this
Contact Custom Button or Link: Google Search http://www.google.com/search?q={!Contact.Name}

has the old syntax, maybe someone could update that?
