Search Bit Che from FireFox and IE 7 search box
« on: January 16, 2007, 02:15:12 pm »
Here is an easy way to search Bit Che from your IE 7's search box in the top right corner...

Just import the attached .reg file into your registry, then restart IE 7 and select 'Bit Che' from your Search Providers list. Once you make a search, your browser will display a blank page since I can't find a way to get the Search Provider's box to directly use the BC:// search protocol.. so for the time being, we'll have to use a webpage I setup with a little java script that seems to do the trick! :)

example:
http://www.convivea.com/search/index.php?q=2007

Cant seem to d/l the FF search plugin. When I click on the link, I'm automatically thrown to the top of this page. That's all. Sounds cool, though, chip!

You on Firefox 2 or above?

yeah, (i think so).. and for FF 1.5 you need to manually copy over a .xml file..  (pretty sure, its been a while since i used FF 1.5)

ill make one after i go eat lunch..
