Kirupa Search Plugin For Firefox

talk random
1

I just created a search plugin for firefox of kirupa 'cause I’m just that bored! To add it, all you have to do is:

[SIZE=4]Click here[/SIZE]

and then click the text “kirupa”

and sorry it doesn’t work too well with the mozilla sidebar, but the kirupa search results didn’t turn out very to do that

Whahahaha awesome work! :thumb:

I was hoping Kirupa’d notice this and put it somewhere, but I guess not… :frowning:

well… maybe if I bump this like I am doing somebody’ll notice it

Doesn’t seem to work if your using a theme other then the default.

5

that’s wierd, it works for me in other skins, what skin are you using? and firefox or mozilla?

6

using the latest version of Firefox. mind posting a screenshot of what your looks like?

7

not at all, here you go

8

That is a nice trick bombing! :slight_smile: I’ll try to find a section on the site where I can link to this.

It’s simple:

I took a screenshot of the orange, took out the background, and cropped it to 16x16

then I followed a tutorial: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/deepdocs/quickstart.html#firstplugin

but that didn’t help on some parts so a bit was guess work, and the search results didn’t really come out the way it wanted, so that’s why the sidebar stuff doesn’t work… but since firefox doesn’t use that it’s nice anyways

this is my finished code by the way:

that is very nice, bombing. :thumb:

digital, what skin do you use?

18

Well I was using Mozilla Modern, then I tryed Noai or something, and just now I tryed Qute and Doodle just to test.

Unfortunatly nothing works, this would be real cool to have maybe i’ll try installing it again.

edit: Hmm maybe because I am already using Google’s Toolbar?

19

wait… are you using firefox or mozilla?
