Thank you, manfredh - that's a big help!

Thank you, Oolyctus and manfredh.
I used both your suggestions and now I love the script.

Great idea manfredh!
I made that edit and it does just what I want now.
Thanx!

anytime would cause the dropdown-field to disappear.

but a "10 years"-range seems to be a good alternative, just change the greasemonkey script
from '&as_qdr=d' to '&as_qdr=y10'

I have the same request as 2oonhed: I'd prefer if it defaulted to "anytime."

This script works fine in my setup.
Is there a way to set the default to "anytime".
I like having the results by date capability, but most often my Google searches require the "anytime" setting.

if it helps
Include:
http*://*.google.*/search*

Exclude:
http*://*.google.*/*as_qdr*

the problem is still there due to sub domains
i hope u fix it
it still reloading automatically

Sorry for multiple posts. The problem I had with reloading was that I used a wildcard so it would hit searches properly (such as from the search bar, from igoogle, etc) which it was not doing as installed.

To fix the reloading, you have to exclude any pages that ALREADY have the date filter set.

So:
Include:
http://www.google.com/search*
Exclude:
http://www.google.com/*as_qdr*

This works now.

I got this to work by changing the include - but now it reloads the page over and over. Completely worthless.

This doesn't seem to work - the URL it includes appears to be too restrictive.
