mozilla plugin support

Hey, i was wondering if the people on the tain had any intentions of making a tain plugin for mozilla, so it's users could search plugins on the tain through the mozilla search engine. i think this would be a cool feature that many mozilla mythers would utilize, especially during tourney season (which is ending in two weeks and starting back up in may for mwc).

just a lil idea that i find interesting and wanted to see if anyone else feels we should do this / knows how to make one of these plugins and could potentially make and share it.

Paris, go here.

Ok, what needs to happen is the XML file in this archive needs to go into the root directory of http://tain.totalcodex.net/ .

Then the following line needs to go inside the <HEAD> tag of the The Tain website:
<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" title="The Tain" href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/thetainsearch.xml">

This will enable visitors to thetain.net to add The Tain as a search option in Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer.

Myrd, I've also made a search XML for the Tain forum subsection of this website.

The following text would go inside the <HEAD> tag:
<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml" title="The Tain (forum)" href="http://tain.totalcodex.net/thetainfsearch.xml">
