Hi, my understanding is that with very few exceptions, if a search engine is included in Firefox it is because Mozilla and the search engine have a contract and Mozilla makes some money from the arrangement. It's hard for outsiders to know what will be added or removed in the future.

- drewzero1 5y agoI started using one called Context Search[0] which let me set custom URLs to be searched on right-click. I needed something to search selected text on an intranet php search page, seems to work okay so far.

- 6510 5y agoI just read up a bit. What a weird development. I normally resort to user scripts and bookmarklets to transport the search query between pages. Didn't know things got this bad. Clicking on an open search js link[0] also doesn't seem to work anymore. I've added auto discovery[1] here which seems to work. FrogFind should add this bloat to their pages :) [0] - javascript:window.external.AddSearchProvider('http://blog.go-here.nl/yacy-opensearch.xml http://blog.go-here.nl/yacy-opensearch.xml'); [1] - http://blog.go-here.nl/8603 http://blog.go-here.nl/8603
