Hi - I am adding London openguides to the search toolbar in my Firefox installation . The idea is you can search openguides even if you haven't got a page open. I thought I would share my experiences so far - if anyone would like to try this out let me know how you get on

You need to put the attached file in the appropriate place which will be something like

/usr/lib/Mozilla/searchplugins C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/searchplugins/

I havent figured out what this bit does. It might allow you to put the search into a sidebar but I havent understood that. <interpret resultListStart="<ol" resultListEnd="</ol>" resultItemStart="<li>" resultItemEnd="</li>"

Next stage is to add an icon and allow it to get installed from a server

The documentation is in http://mycroft.mozdev.org/deepdocs.html cid:part1.01030506.01070608@black1.org.uk
