Search the CAT from the Firefox Search Box

| | Comments (1) | TrackBacks (0)

You can create a CAT search shortcut for the Firefox search box (the one that appears in the top right of the Firefox browser--it comes preloaded with searches for Google, Amazon, etc.).

It's easy and takes nanoseconds. Here's how you do it:

Install this plugin in Firefox (click the green Install Now button).
Restart Firefox.
Go to the CAT.
Right click on the search box (where you normally type in keywords).
Choose the "Add to Search Bar" option.
Give it a name of your choosing, e.g. PSUL CAT, click OK.
You're done! See how easy that was?

Now you can quickly search the CAT via the search box in Firefox without having to go the web site.

Thanks to Chronicles of Bean for this tip!

Alas, once this dood-dad's been in your toolbar for more than a few minutes, typing in a search yields an annoying "connection timed out" message. Nevertheless...it got me in the CAT!
