FireFox Plug-in for MVS Search Window!

Post by **MadeInJapan** » 21 Oct 2008, 16:32

Got busy and made this today. It will install in your browser's search window like the other search engines that are already there: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engine ... sVolvoSite

Let me know if there are any problems with it...it's real simple- uses Google to search, so don't expect a whole lot.

WOW! Thanks MIJ!

This is something I've been meaning to look into forever.

It works great. I'm pinning this.

Just sent you an email telling you about it.
It was a bit of trial and error and bad eyesight that kept me from getting it up sooner....in the strand of computer gibberish, I was mistaking ( and ) for { and }, so once I got that straightened out, it was rather simple to do.

Here's what it does:

That "M" next to the search box means I want to search using Google, but I want the results to only show MatthewsVolvoSite.com results. You can flip back and forth between that and regular Google searches.

You must have Firefox to use it. To install it into Firefox browser, go to the link in Made In Japan's post (above), and click on "MatthewsVolvoSite" link. Then click OK when it asks you if you want to install it.

Very cool MIJ, I wish I had known this was around the last 2 years
