Drupal Search Plugin ScreenshotDrupal Search Plugin ScreenshotOk, building Firefox search plugins might be old news, but I had a real need to construct one. I have found searches on drupal.org to be too slow and the search algorithms not as good as other search engines. I am usually pretty happy with my search results on Google, but I have grown weary of typing "site:drupal.org" every time I want to only search drupal.org with Google. After seeing others build Firefox searches, I figured it was time for me to step up so I can easily search the one site I search the most.

Attached below is a zip file download containing install instructions, source file and Druplicon image. Please let me know if you have questions or if you have any improvements for the plugin. Download and enjoy!

Thanks to the author of this article for the information I needed to build the plugin: http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20050531/1944/ [1]
