http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html?name=prog&sherlock=yes&opensearch=yes&submitform=Search - Get it! It's the first one on the list. When you type a band's name in the search box then you go directly to the band's entry!  BTW, does anybody know the guy who made it (Gustavo Miranda Teixeira)?  EDIT: you get directly to a band's entry if the band's name is one-off. ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent."

I like it too. It looks like it works in the same manner as the one we had before the google engine was implemented. ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent." Charles Bukowski |

I also used to use Opera. But I switched to Firefox and don't regret it. The forum works much better. ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent." Charles Bukowski |

Sounds like a great idea, but it doesn't work When I click, prompt for bar addition pops up, and when I click yes, nothing happens. When I tried to open link in a new window, the message appears as follows: JavaScript must be enabled to install a search plugin.. But JS is already enabled on my Mozilla Firefox! Damn... ------------- |

It's a search engine. Go to upper right corner of your Firefox widow. There's the search box. It's default set on Google:  Then click on the arrow beside Google symbol. You'll get a list:  Voila! ------------- "Music is much like f**king, but some composers can't climax and others climax too often, leaving themselves and the listener jaded and spent."

Not necessarily true - try it with Genesis. Still, it's pretty good though. |

Nice! Well done, hats off to the one who created it. Might use the search function in fireFox for a change

I usually use Safari, but I will give it a try.
Ok, that's cool, but I'll probably stick with Safari. ------------- a.k.a. H.T. http://riekels.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow - http://riekels.wordpress.com |
