Hi all,
I am working on a new plugin, a search engine broker (output). You can
see it in action on http://www.target-x.de/search.html and
http://www.target-x.de/search-forms.html.
BTW that is my site with a new theme I developed while testing the
dispatcher. :)
Nice search plugin!
:)
How do you like the history list?
I love it. Some feature requests:
- persist the history between invocations
- provide the search results for the last search in the browser page (I
block popups, maybe an iframe would be the simplest answer)
- allow the setting of "preferred engines" and search them
simultaneously, i.e. Forrest site, Forrest Dev Arhives, Forrest User
Archives
I'm not about to implement any of these, but I would *love* to see them ;-)
(I can magine using this plugin so no doubt will contribute one day,
just not right now).
With respect to reusing the search definition code.
- What license is the definition schema released as?
Not found any information on it but it seems an internal mozilla format
and mozilla is ASF style license, right?
I always thought so, but I have an inkling that it was listed as a
non-compatible license in the recent legal FAQ. I've not verified this
(possibly incorret) rcollection.
We need to consider
reuse of the schema as well as the individual definitions.
I would like to go one step further and try to start a discussion on
mozilla to use a xml valid format instead of the halfbaked xml like
format that they have right now.
To re-use the existing mozilla *out-of-the-box" would be more then
awesome. :)
If you ave the time for another list ;-)
