Public Firefox Add-ons 07112008 part II

Maria researched some search tools for us to add to Firefox. They are really easy to add. We just add them to the searchplugins folder. We narrowed them down to the following:

ACPL Catalog
Google
Yahoo
Amazon.com
Answers.com
Wikipedia
Webster

All we need to do is copy the the xml files for the plugins to:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins
Just like we added the ACPL Catalog for the staff application object.

The only add-on that will be available for the public is Print Preview 0.7.1.4. This allows us to add Print Preview along with Print to the toolbar.

Progress so far:
As of today the snapshot was made of the Firefox install. The snAppShot folder was named Public _Firefox. The folder was copied to the working directory on the server. The initial application object was completed and our documentation file for Public_Firefox was update. An install of Firefox along with the search plugins and print preview was set up on another computer. This will be used for a template as the applicatoin object is modifieid.
