Search Plugins
I made a [mycroft] plugin to search the Seti 23 Wiki. this is the second hack of it =) it uses a hacked version of the seti 23 favicon.ico

s23WikI
a search for the new seti 23 WikI please leave any feeback you have

Auto Install to auto install go to this page 23.me.uk

Manualy install to manualy install down load the files [s23WikI.src] and [s23WikI.png], save them in your firefox\searchplugins directory, restart firefox, and the seti 23 wiki search should now be an option in the [mycroft] search bar.

Chat excerpts from Freenode #mozilla:
< mutante__> could you give me a hint what i need to look into  to make a web-installable .xpi firefox plugin once i got a working .scr file for a Mycroft search plugin < mutante__> i have a .scr and a .png file which work if copied to ./searchplugins manually < mutante__> now i would like to make an installable plugin out of it <    mattmcc> You don't need to make an XPI. Take a look at the code that mycroft.mozdev.org uses (addEngine) < mutante__> thanks,will do <  mutante__> mattmcc: oh you mean placing javascript into html with function "addEngine" ? < mutante__> mattmcc: actually is making an xpi ,and just placing it on a server also an option in this case? (to avoid javascript,so i can just use regular a href links to the .xpi < mutante__> (which starts firefox'es install dialog) <    mattmcc> I suppose you could make an xpi that didn't actually install anything.. :) <   mattmcc> Actually, no, I'm not sure that works anymore. < mutante__> hmm,i want to put the link into a wiki where i cant add the javascript < mutante__> ok,thanks anyways *   mattmcc thinks with the new install.rdf format, you'd have to install at least some file.

seems like gotta make a html containing java script and then place a link to that in here ,greets mutante 19:55, 16 Feb 2005 (CET)
