Every Firefox user has probably seen the search box to the right of the location box. The default installation of Firefox includes some useful pre-installed search engines including Google, Yahoo, Amazon, eBay etc. The search box is probably the quickest way to search for something. Hit Ctrl+K, type in your search query, hit enter and you get your results.

But we were missing one little detail - there was no search plugin for OSNN. So I thought I'd create one (since Ctrl+K is incredibly handy) and share it with the rest of you.

Hope you find it useful.

Install: Firefox OSNN Search Plugin

NOTE: The plugin should work with Mozilla and Netscape as well

nice job man i like it

And a small addition:
Bookmarks -> Rightclick 'Quick Searches' -> Manage Folder
Add a new bookmark:

Name => 'OSNN Quick Search'
Location => 'http://www.osnn.net/forum/search.php?do=process&sourceid=Mozilla-search&query=%s'
Keyword => 'osnn'

Hit OK.
Now, when you type 'osnn <searchterm>' in the address bar, the <searchterm> is being searched for, like the special toolbar does Personally I prefer this method, instead of using the search toolbar.

nice yea i prefer this method on google too

[NetRyder]

Glad to see this is still useful.

Seems to be working for me. Anyone else having a problem getting it?

 

[Mainframeguy]

well I just tried it here and all I got was a page with a pic and an OSNN linkie - no download. Will try again later when I am at home with my regular setup also (using Ffox on a mac here!)

 

[Vanquished]

It works for me.
Got a pic and a link, but when u click the link it asks if you want the bar, so i think its working fine.
