With a little assistance from Justin, I’ve put together a search plugin for Mozilla Firefox for the Library Catalog for Sewanee: The University of the South. I’ll be interested to see how widespread it gets, since I’m still under the impression that technology isn’t always embraced readily on campus.
Check it out if you are interested. Just unzip into your Firefox/search plugins directory, and it should work fine.

How do you do this? Do share! Other university catalogs need searching with quick little icons.
jean, just unzip the file and look at the source of the .src file. then take a look at this: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/deepdocs.html
then reverse engineer the duke catalog’s search page.
not sure what this plugin is supposed to do.
Firefox 1.0
Unzipped to Temp file and copied contents to Firefox plugin folder
Went to DuPont Library website.
Seems the same.
Okay I’m a dumb ass. Can you explain what is supposed to happen?
