How to trigger sitecore personalization with Link.aspx? - asp.net

I am running into a wall trying to figure out if it's possible to trigger a query string personalization of a sitecore item using the following:
/~/link.aspx?_id=GUID
I've tried appending &_key=value but it doesn't trigger. IS this something that's possible?

You need to create a custom rule for query string, Sitecore doesn't have such a functionality out of box as far I know.
Please follow bellow link how to implement a similar functionality like you want:

How can an input and output show linked in BizTalk and not have a connection?

I need to add an extra field to a BizTalk service call.
I added the field as an element in the input and output schemas.
Then I was going to map the input and output in the mapper.
But I was faced with this:
The old fields show as linked and they are working. But there's no visible link. I would like to add the new field and map it the same way and not link it directly.
Anyone knows how this can be linked?
I searched for the old fields in the solution and I couldn't find anything that could explain this. I guess there must be some property I don't know about but I don't see anything either.
The link is done in another page. I forgot you can scroll through pages in biztalk mapper

Drupal: How to Figure Out the token for a Specific Field?

I would like to know how to 'construct' tokens. I have read many examples, but somehow I don't understand them. I am new to Drupal and at the moment I am testing how it works. I'm trying to hide the title of a content type I've created and automatically replace it with the content of another field. As far as I know, I have installed and enabled all the relevant modules including CCK and Automatic Entity Label. The only thing I don't know is what token I should use to make it happen. The field I would like to use as the source for the title field is called event (or possibly field_event) and is of type text. I'm visually impaired and either I'm doing something wrong, or the token browser is not too screen reader friendly. Either way, I can't access the list of all tokens to select the token, so I have to enter it manually. If I'm not mistaken, the token should include '[node:body]', right? But is it like '[node:event:body]' or '[field:event:body]' or something else?
Many thanks!
One Idea might be the devel module https://drupal.org/project/devel . Install it, activate it and visit some page of the node type you want to use the token on, and click on the devel tab and then on the token tab. et voila. or you navigate directly to e.g. yoursite.com/node/29/devel/token .
Hope it helps.

Use Google Search Appliance Test center as my own aspx page

How would I use the view google has in the test center (where i test my frontend)?
When a user browse to site/search.aspx I want the to get the view testcenter shows, searchboxes and everything. I would also like to add my own javascript and css to the page.
Is this possible?
Now I have created a search box with updatepanel to show the results but this approach will force me to do a lot of parsing and setting variables for the dynamic navigation. I.e. a lot of logic Google already serves in test center.
By the way, I dont want to use the McA+ library supporting GSA 6.14.
I serialized the xml result from the GSA to C# objects and then fed them to my frontend where I could handle them.
Example of converting XML to HTML using XSL in C# ASP.NET can be found at: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/469723/Rendering-XML-Data-as-HTML-using-XSL-Transformatio

search text box utility

I have a requirement where user will have an option to search
the data and should match the feature same as google has provided
i.e. whatever char user types in the search box - user will be prompted with matching string below - same as google search text box - you type something and get the options
what control or strategy we should follow in C# ?
Thanks in advance.
What you are looking for is called "autocomplete". The Ajax Control Toolkit has such a control. You can find it here.
what you are trying to achieve is basically AJAX based Google like "suggest" feature, I would recommend having a look at this : Google like search
Plus there are ample other such links that will help you in your quest.

API for word definitions

i'm trying to implement a little app which basically only hs a label, textbox and a button and when the user enters a word, i want to connect to some online api to retrieve the word's definition and display it in the label. is this possible? all i keep finding is api's related to other stuff on google/other se's. but i have seen this in practice before so i know they are out there, i just don't know where.
I suggest you try WordNet. It has got an API that you can use over the web.
Check it out here: http://wordnet.princeton.edu/wordnet/related-projects/#web
If you search more probably you will find, but let me give you a hint:
You can make a http web request to any website who handles word definitions. You can even search for "define: " + word in google and get the response.
