[geeklog-devel] Open Search API

[Michael Jervis]

Just thought, it would be /really/ nice to see support for
auto-install of a firefox search option for any Geeklog site via the
OpenSearch API.

Looking at Wikipedia, you need to  add a header:
		<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml"
href="/w/opensearch_desc.php" title="Wikipedia (en)" />
And a small packet of XML:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/">
<ShortName>Wikipedia (en)</ShortName>
<Description>Wikipedia (en)</Description>
<Image height="16" width="16"
type="image/x-icon">http://en.wikipedia.org/favicon.ico</Image>
<Url type="text/html" method="get"
template="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Search&search={searchTerms}"/>
<Url type="application/x-suggestions+json" method="GET"
template="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=opensearch&search={searchTerms}&namespace=0"/>
</OpenSearchDescription>

And then it's done. When you visit Wikipedia, the downarrow on the
search selector goes blue and you can just add that site.

Maybe the guy doing the GSoC could add that too?
