Have you ever wanted to add your own search engines to the search bar in Firefox? Well there are plugins that will do this for you, but I find that it’s more fun to create them yourself. If you go to the folder C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxsearchplugins, you will find an XML file for each search engine. If you open one of these in a text editor, you can probably customize a copy of one of the existing files to meet your needs....
