The Adsense for search module appears to be configured to return the search results in the body location. With my site the minimum width of the search results is wider than the body location.

Is it possible to include an option to either automatically fit the results to the space available or configure the results to show on the Google site (one of the other options available when setting up the Adsense for search on the Google site.).

I am only relitively new to drupal so let me know if I am missing something.

The minimum width is mandated by Google and it's 500px for "Top and Bottom" ad location and 795px for the others.

Since there is little point in using the module if you don't want to see the results embedded in the site, I never considered the option to display them in Google. It should be simple to add that option though..

I didn't actually try implementing AdSense for search without this module. I was under the impression AdSense for search would not work without this module.

I will give it a go and that may supply to solution for me.

Closing this issue.. Even though it would be a simple matter of adding a configuration setting.

I still believe that the only reason why anyone would choose to display the results externally in Google, is that they don't know how to set it up correctly. In this case, that simply doesn't apply as the module takes care of it.

If anyone can provide a good reason why displaying the results in Google would be better, I'll rethink my position.
