mozilla plugin support

Post by king paris »

Hey, i was wondering if the people on the tain had any intentions of making a tain plugin for mozilla, so it's users could search plugins on the tain through the mozilla search engine. i think this would be a cool feature that many mozilla mythers would utilize, especially during tourney season (which is ending in two weeks and starting back up in may for mwc).

just a lil idea that i find interesting and wanted to see if anyone else feels we should do this / knows how to make one of these plugins and could potentially make and share it.
hey :D

Paris, go here.

Ok, what needs to happen is the XML file in this archive needs to go into the root directory of http://tain.totalcodex.net/ .

Then the following line needs to go inside the <HEAD> tag of the The Tain website:
<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" title="The Tain" href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/thetainsearch.xml">

This will enable visitors to thetain.net to add The Tain as a search option in Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer.

Myrd, I've also made a search XML for the Tain forum subsection of this website.

The following text would go inside the <HEAD> tag:
<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" title="The Tain (forum)" href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/thetainfsearch.xml">
