Hello all,
I'm attaching a nifty new search that does some great stuff for
working with Yahoo!, but also demonstrates storing 'profiles' for
different search capabilities using single Array variables in the
localprefs.js file.
[Description]:
Login to My Yahoo! (or other Yahoo! umbrella sites) using a
user/password combination profile.
[Usage]:
yy [profile]
[Variables]:
//An array storing a user and password profile for Yahoo!
var yyid = Array("username","password");
//You SHOULD provide the yyid() variable, however, you may also
//provide as many other profiles as necessary to account for your
//Yahoo ID's. If you were to create a 'second' profile you would
//need only to pass the variable name on the command line:
// yy profile2
//These variables are, however, case sensitive. If the variable
//passed does not exist (misspelled, incorrect case...), this
//search will 'default' to using the <em>yyid</em> variable.
var profile1 = Array("myid","pass","http://mail.yahoo.com/";);
var profile2 = Array("otherid","opass","http://groups.yahoo.com/";);
[Examples]:
yy
yy profile1
yy profile2
[Advanced]:
One of the best parts is that you can create Aliases that include
the profile variable name very easily, so going to a site using one
profile is at least as easy as using a second or other profile.
