AppsDbaBlog Search Plug-in for Firefox and IE7
Few days back i was going through a interesting post about the metalink search plug-in post at the AppsLabBlog(through Steven Chan's Post).That got me kicking into making a search plug-in for this blog.
Once added this search plug-in will allow you to lookup the AppsDbaBlog.com form the search box in your top right conner of your browser.
The functionality currently works with Firefox and IE7 only.
On Firefox, while you are reading this post locate the Quick Search box on the top right side of your browser, In the drop down list click on the Add "AppsDbaBlog.com" to add it in your quick search list.
After this you should be able to see the search along with your existing search providers
In case of IE7 choose the "Add Search Provider" from the quick search drop down list
You would get a dialog confirming your selection
After this the AppsDbaBlog.com search will be there in your quick search box and you can look up for anything on this blog without actually having to go to it first.

Sam, Glad you liked this plugin and made your own. You can easily make one for FF 1.5 too, just download the .src from the MetaLink I list on the page and edit it for your site. Then, stick some Javascript (view the source of my page) on your page, and you're good to go. FF 1.5 is at the end of its life, but you never know how many people will stick around. Thanks. Jake
