So -- I guess you're a geek, and so I assume you might be using Opera. One of Opera's unique features is its collection of search boxes - as a drop down list or as one field per search.
If you ever wanted to embed UF's keyword search for past cartoons into Opera - this is what you have to do:
- (Important!) Please close Opera. It's not recommended to perform the following actions with any Opera windows left open (although it might work to just restart Opera afterwards).
- Find the
search.ini that applies to you. (In OP7 this might reside in your profile folder, OP6 it should reside in your Opera installation folder.)
- Add the following lines to
search.ini:
[Search Engine 14]
Name=UF=User Friendly
URL=http://www.userfriendly.org/cgi-bin/search.cgi?\
\form=strip&searchobject=%s
Query=
Key=uf
Is post=0
Has endseparator=0
Encoding=iso-8859-1
Search Type=51
Verbtext=17063
Position=-1
Nameid=0
Important: The URL= line has to be one single line without any linebreak or whitespace. So put form= right after search.cgi? like ...search.cgi?form=....
Be sure to replace "14" be the next free number. (If you plan to insert UF search higher in the list, you have to re-number all subsequent searches. You need to have a continuous order: 1, 2, 3, ...
- (Re-)Start Opera
THIS IS IT! From now on you can use the keyword search from the dropdown list.
And, even better: Simply type "uf searchphrase" in your adress field
-- This has been tested with Opera 6.05 and 7.1 - so it should work with 6.x and 7.x.
