Here's a Firefox plugin for MSFN. Copy and paste the code into Notepad and save it as msfn.src. You'll also need to grab MSFN's favicon and convert it to a gif. Save the gif as msfn.gif. Close all open Firefox windows and then place both files in Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins. Open Firefox and you'll see a search option for MSFN.

<search 
   version = "7.1" 
   name="MSFN"
   description="MSFN Search"
   method="GET"
   searchForm="http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=Search&mode=adv&f="
   action="http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=Search&mode=adv&f=" >

<input name="&keywords" user>
<input name="namesearch" value="">
<input name="forums" value="all">
<input name="searchsubs" value="1">
<input name="prune" value="0">
<input name="prune_type" value="newer">
<input name="sort_key" value="last_post">
<input name="sort_order" value="desc">
<input name="search_in" value="posts">
<input name="result_type" value="topics">
<input name="CODE" value="01">

</search>


<browser
   update="http://localhost/msfn.src" 
   updateIcon="http://localhost/msfn.png" 
   updateCheckDays="3"
>


The browser part of the code was left incase xper wants to make an official plugin. Otherwise, don't worry about the localhost setting.

I know it's an old post, but any search can also be implemented in Opera as I describe here: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...indpost&p=79425

This badly needs an update. However, I assume, MSFN forum searching via plugin isn't feasible any longer.
How should one handle the login condition?
