I have created some FireFox search plugins for searching Macromedia and Flash resources.

The plugins included are:

Here is a screen shot of the plugins within FireFox:

    *Note: For OSX users, the "searchplugins" directory is inside the Firefox application package. Right-click on Firefox, select "Show Package Contents." Open "Contents/MacOS/searchplugins" and put 'em in there.

    The Were-Here and FlashCoders ones aren't working for me. These also happen to be the only two without icons (the second parameter in the javascript). Any ideas?

    Sean, I just fixed those. I coudn't figure out how to install with no icons, so I just did a transparent gif. They work now. mike chambers mesh@macromedia.com

    You should submit your mozilla firefox search plugins to the mycroft list. http://mycroft.mozdev.org/

    So maybe one of you can explain why pop ups loading my swf are not working in firefox. Not just mine but I get a Quiktime icon and then a broken link symbol. Same whit Netscape lately so I wonder...?

    Its a plug in issue. You have to install the flash player in the mozilla pluginfolder. http://texturizer.net/firefox/faq.html#q2.1

    I conjured up a DMXzone search plugin - http://www.dmxzone.com/showDetail.asp?TypeId=6&NewsId=10113&CatId=0 . I will be releasing FWzone & FLzone & DNzone search plugins this summer too.

    These don't seem to work in Firefox 1.5. Nothing happens when I hit the enter key in the search box.

    Why not package them into one?
