Fancy to see an Archlinux search plugin for firefox

go to here, and install:
http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html
search archlinux package, have installed.

Here's my fix:
$ su -
# cd /opt/mozilla-firefox/lib/firefox-0.9.1
# chown root:users searchplugins
# chmod 775 searchplugins
There really SHOULD be a ~/.mozilla/firefox/default.klm/searchplugins/ directory for each user (there's one for extensions). Hopefully by 1.0 the Firefox people will change this.

Firefox search plugin for SDN

Hi,
I have created a search plugin for Firefox. The files can be downloaded from http://www.hariraj.com/Firefox.SAPSDN_SearchPlugin.zip
Unzip the files to your "<<Firefox install dir>>\searchplugins" directory.
I have tested the plugin with Firefox 1.0.1
If someone has problems with other versions please let me know.
Regards,
Hari

Hi Hari,
it searches all of SDN and displays the full navigation. In the moment there are several submission of SDN Search plugins. They are consolidated and published in the moment.
Some extra information from my colleague Markus Riedinger:

How can I create a search plugin for multiple fields

There are a number of sites that have search capabilities but they require entries into multiple fields.
One such site is for instance the IBM Employee directory.
(http://www.ibm.com/contact/employees/servlets/lookup)
On this site - in order to get usable results - I have to enter both First name and Last name of the employee I'm looking for.
I created a search plugin for the site, however I wasn't able to split the entered text into two parts and provide them as separate fields for the form.
Is there a way to do this?
Regards,
Imre

Hi,
This is excellent. Not search-plugin though but but this is as good as a search-plugin. (Even better, as I haven't seen any solution with the plugins for the problem.)
I didn't know that it was possible to use javascript as bookmark location.
Thanks,
Imre

Firefox search plugin for this forum

Hey!
I made a Firefox search plugin for this forum:
http://cip.uni-trier.de/zaplatynski/moz-search/
I am just too lazy for the two clicks to get the search form!
Note: The installation instructions apply just for the Uni Trier search plugins... I need there a redirection page.
I hope it will be usefull for everyone. I plan to make one for the AUR too.
So long,
Marian
P.S. If I get some time, I will make a nicer icon...

Finally, I made it available:
http://cip.uni-trier.de/zaplatynski/moz … linux.html
Reviewed all search plugins by others and adapted them if needed.
Please post any comments bugs. I will do some plugins for google in the next time.
Greetings,
Marian

JRE 1.5 plugin for Firefox on Linux works as root but not as an other user

I am trying to usel the JRE plugin for Firefox on Fedora Core 4. I downloaded and installed it as "root" and created the symbolic link so Firefox can "see" it. It now works just fine if I run Firefox as "root", but if I run it as any other user, it thinks that the plugin is not installed.
I checked to make sure that the path to the symbolic link is accessible by anyone (all directories in the path are x to "other" and the link and the .so file are both rx for "other").
What else do I need to do so non-root users can use this plugin?

remove $HOME/.mozilla/plugins and $HOME/.java and try again

New Plugin for Firefox- Maps Blank

I just went to maps.ovi.com and got offered a new plugin for Firefox. It seemed to install OK and now the website - which used to take about 5 mins to startup for me - starts up in seconds. Almost as fast as Google maps!
SNAG - the map area is blank. I can't see any maps!
Is it just me?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Malicious software had switched my Internet Options to use a proxy server. Firefox showed the Maps website and navigation perfectly but the map did not download. Simply disabling the "Use a proxy server" in "Connections" fixed it. Since I do not use Internet Explorer I had not noticed this!

I need jre 7u5 plugin for firefox for my final project

Hello!
I'm IT student and for my security class I require to find an exploit, exploit a system, and then learn how this exploit works.
I picked JRE 7u5 exploit.
I downloaded that version of java from oracle archives but the problem is that I require a browser plugin.
I tried to search for plugin on Google for more than few hours but I can't find anything useful...
I though I could post this question here since there was this version of java released on plugin page once.
My question is, could you please release JRE 7u5 plugin for Firefox please? Or do you know where I could find it? I really hoped I could use this exploit but the difficulty lays with finding the right plugin.
Please give me a feedback how I could get JRE plugin for Firefox or any other browser!
I will be using Windows XP SP 2 VM.
Thank you in advance!

Hi,
You're going to find that there's only a very small group of people that want to install a program with a known exploit, and the developers aren't going to be keen on allowing ongoing access to faulty code.
Best bet would be to look for the source code. On the [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html Oracle website] there's the source for JDK 6; have a look around there. You may have to drop back a version to get access.
Ian.

[SOLVED] Can't Find IcedTea7 Java Plugin for Firefox

Hello everybody,
I'm new to Arch (have used Linux for some time but never got too deep into configurations and such). I've always just used proprietary versions of Java in the past, even on Linux, but now that I have a really cutomized Arch box, I'd like to try and support OpenJDK+IcedTea.
I followed the Wiki instructions by installing jre7-openjdk, jdk7-openjdk, and icedtea-web-java7 packages. All I want is to link to the plugin for firefox. However, I don't actually see the .so plugin file anywhere, nor do I know how to see where pacman installs things.
I have a folder /usr/share/icedtea-web/ that contains the files about.jar, about.jnlp, netx.jar, and plugin.jar.
I remember .jar files are Java archives, but I actually have no idea what to do with them or how to use them as I'm not too familiar with Java (but I do run browser applets using the plugin).
I apologize for my noobness in this, but can anybody help me figure out how to find or acquire or extract the .so plugin file for firefox?
Thanks,
Dave

Great, thank you so much! Actually, it was already fixed before I read your reply, but it's still informative (I wasn't sure how to find file lists for pacman packages).
I just removed and reinstalled all the java packages and it worked. I might have done it in the wrong order or something when I did it the first time. I wasn't sure if the web test on the Java website checked for the Oracle plugin specifically or just a valid JRE implementation, but it worked, so I guess OpenJDK is working great so far.

Adobe Reader plugin for Firefox 3

Has anyone else been having problems reading some pdfs using the Adobe Reader plugin for Firefox 3?
For several months this often (but not always) happens:
I follow a link to a .pdf, a new window opens with a blue progress bar in the middle.
It gets to 100%, but then nothing happens, it just sits there with the progress bar full and "Done" in the status bar.
Interestingly, I also have the "IE Tab" extension installed and if I click on the icon to change the browser engine, the page reloads (with a slightly different progress bar that includes a counter for the file size) and the document is always displayed correctly when the download is completed.
the Adobe Acrobat plug-in is v10.1.0.534.

http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
You'll find previous versions there as well as the latest builds, but I honestly don't see why you'd not like 4.0. After all, this is Firefox we're talking about not IE, which seems to only get worse with each new release.

Directory of plugins for Firefox?

Where can I find a list with all existing plugins for Firefox?

* "If you want to see a list of plugins that are enabled in Firefox, enter about:plugins in the Firefox address bar. See this article for details: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Identifying_installed_plugins"
Ok Alice.
This it is the a list of plugins that are enabled in MINE Firefox installation.
NOT a list of plugins that are enable in ALL Firefox installations, around the world.

Plugin for Firefox

Hello support center,
My name is Khanh Long Nguyen from Vietnam,
I really like use Firefox.
Firstly, in recently, I see that many versions of Firefox browser appearing at same time so it is difficult for me to select which is the most suitable version for my demand.
Secondly, today I downloaded and installed Firefox version 6 (English) for my notebook, but when open this below website:
http://dantri.com.vn/c26/s26-510284/xu-nghe-mo-hoi-bong-da.htm
It appears an issue that need add plugin for Firefox browser, so I click and install this plugin (Adobe Flash Player which already exist in my notebook) but it take a long time (about 10minutes but cannot finish installing this plugin. while when I use Google Chrome for this website, it is OK, not appear any trouble like using Firefox.
Pls let me know about this.
Thanks so much
Khanh Long.Nguyen

So I completely uninstalled FF and installed newest (9.0.1) and it seems to work fine now. Installing older versions wasn't working. Had to uninstall and reinstall for each user.

Installing Adobe Flash Player 10.0.42 Plugin for Firefox 3.5.7

I currently have Firefox 3.5.7 installed and am trying to access a site that requires the current version of Adobe Flash Player (10.0.42). When I download and install it, the website still doesn't recognize flash player being installed.
I go to Adobe.com, make sure I am downloading the one for WinXP/Firefox and install it, then it says that it is successfully installed. However, when I try to access the site, and it says that the current version of flash player is not installed, with a link to the adobe site to download the latest version (which I already did).
I have tried uninstalling the flash player, from both Windows and Adobe's uninstaller, and reinstalling with no success. I have even tried uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, still nothing. For fun, I tried updating IE, and it works fine, but I REALLY don't like IE.
Another note: when I uninstall Flash Player, it doesn't remove it from my machine (add/remove program list), even when Windows asks, "Adobe ... is already uninstalled, would you like to remove it from the list?" Additionally, when I go to Adobe's Flash Player version tester site, it reports that IE is running version 10.0.42, but when I access it with FF, it shows a link to download the latest Adobe FP.

I have Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, but I'm still missing Flash Player?

So I have installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, and I'm able to watch youtube videos on my browser and other things that require flash player, but I have a disc that i got along with my Samsung monitor, and when I put it in my computer, it says that I do not infact have flash player. Also, when I try playing a game, DawnGate, theres a black box where a video should be, and it says that i do not have flash player, and it is required to watch these videos. I tried uninstalling, and I was unable to watch youtube, and when i reinstalled, I was able to watch youtube again, but that did not fix my problem. Is there something I'm missing? I look forward to hearing from someone soon.

Odds are it's looking for the IE plugin: (A lot of software just assumes ALL Windows users are "slaves to Microsoft" and only have IE installed.)
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
or the standalone Player:
Windows Flash Player 12 Projector

Java plugin for firefox

Hi All !
I hope this is the right forum. I have installed java plugin for firefox
I try the website javatester.org and I get a message saying:
Your security settings have blocked an untrusted application from running.
If I understand this correct this is not a firefox message but a java message
so...
I have used the java control panel and added the site to the site list
I also lowered the security settings to medium
Restarted the browser and tried again but no luck, what am I missing ?
Appreciate your feedback !
Thanks
Magnus

Hi,
Did you activate the JDK java for your browser in the java plugin config.
Configuration Panel -> java plugin -> Advance -> Default Java for Browser
