Search Plugins and Scripts for the Firefox Browser

The Firefox search bar is a built in search within the Firefox browser. The default setting includes Google, Yahoo!, eBay, Amazon.com, and Dictionary.com. Click on the icon (the Google G is the default) to choose another search. Then enter your search words and hit Enter. To do another search with the same words in a different search engine, just select the new search from the list and hit enter, again.

There are lots of search plugins available. Try the main list at Mozilla's search plugin page or do a Web search for "firefox search plugin" and the name of the page or service you are interested in. For instance, here's a Google search for Pubmed plugins: firefox search plugin Pubmed.
