Customising Firefox Default Search
THU, 22 JUN 2006
I have always been very irritated with the default search in Firefox address bar. If you enter “Singapore”, it will redirect to the closest matched page without showing the search list, but most of the times I want the search list!
I did a quick search in Mozilla site, and found out that you can easily customise the default search behaviour, and here are the steps:
- Type "about:config" in the address bar and press <Enter>
- The config page will show up, type "keyword" in the filter input box to filter the list
- Double click on "keyword.URL" to change its value to "http://www.google.com/search?btnG=Google+Search&q=".
- And hooola… you have successfully hacked your Firefox address bar
