FF 1.5 and text-indent highlighting

without comments

Hmm, might want to keep an eye on this thread, since it looks like the new branch of Firefox will outline not only the border of an active anchor tag, but also any indented text if it has text set with a negative text-indent. I haven’t noticed it yet myself with 1.5b2, but I will definitely check it out when I get home.

Two New Firefox Search Plugins

without comments

function addEngine(name,ext,cat)
{
if ((typeof window.sidebar == “object”) && (typeof
window.sidebar.addSearchEngine == “function”))
{
//cat=”Web”;
//cat=prompt(”In what category should this engine be installed?”,”Web”)
window.sidebar.addSearchEngine(
“http://straightnochaser.org/goodies/”+name+”.src”,
“http://straightnochaser.org/goodies/”+name+”.”+ext,
name,
cat );
}
else
{
errorMsg(name,ext,cat);
}
}
Yelp.com (san francisco only) and GreenCine.com.

Also testing the search plugin install script. Have at it.
