I just created a custom search engine for Firefox. And I would explain how did it.

Search plugins are stored as xml under the Firefox profiles folder.

Type '%appdata%' in start->run.

And find "Searchplugins" in your profile folder under the Mozilla\Firefox.

create an xml as shown below:


Name
Desr
UTF-8


http://www.example.com/

Note the "{searchTerms}" is the Substitution variable for the search string you type in the search bar. Rest you need to find it yourself...

Thats it...Not a Big deal!!!

(Will be refined shortly...First post...please excuse!)
