CyberSearch: Supercharge Your Firefox Address Bar
Enhance Firefox’s Address Bar with CyberSearch
Are you seeking a method to significantly improve the functionality of Firefox’s Address Bar through the use of specialized, keyword-driven searches? Consider exploring the capabilities of the CyberSearch extension. It offers a customizable search experience directly within the address bar.
CyberSearch in Action
The CyberSearch extension comes pre-loaded with a comprehensive set of built-in keywords. This provides a strong foundation for immediate use. It’s advisable to document these keywords for easy reference as you become familiar with the extension’s features.
Let’s examine some practical examples to illustrate its operation. Users can also define new, personalized keywords within the extension’s options.
For instance, utilizing the “Bing Spell Function” and intentionally misspelling “office” demonstrates the extension’s ability to instantly suggest the correct spelling at the top of the search results.
Employing the “Google Web Function” to search for “howtogeek” yields a substantial number of results. Each listing is accompanied by a helpful website favicon for quick identification.
A search using the “Google Video Function” for “windows 7” similarly provides relevant video results. The favicons effectively pinpoint the source webservice for each video.
Options
The “Keywords Tab Area” allows for the management and addition of new keywords. Enabling keywords within this section is recommended to fully leverage the extension’s functionality.
Customize CyberSearch’s behavior in the “Behavior Tab Area”. The magnifying glass icon in the address bar distinguishes CyberSearch results from other items. Adjusting its color can further enhance visibility.
The “Triggers Tab Area” enables or disables settings such as keyword prefixing, automatic domain search, and multi-page results.
Configure the display properties of CyberSearch in the “Appearance Tab Area”. Here, you can specify the number of rows and results displayed in the Address Bar.
Import or export CyberSearch keywords, or manage existing Firefox Keywords, using the “Import/Export Tab Area”.
If settings become corrupted or a fresh start is desired, the “Reset Tab Area” allows you to restore everything to the original default configuration.
Conclusion
For those seeking a powerful way to augment Firefox’s Address Bar, the CyberSearch extension is a highly recommended addition to your browser. It provides a flexible and efficient search experience.
