Mycroft Project Search Plugins not installing
Hi!
I've "written" some search plugins using the Mycroft opensearch generator and installed them onto my friend's iBook G4 without any issue and they work fine. I came home and tried to install them into my TenFourFox on my (very early model) G5 and received this message:
"You will need a browser which supports OpenSearch to install this plugin."
So I quit TenFourFox and tried AuroraFox, thinking that maybe it was some sort of plug-in issue. Same response.
Both machines are running 10.5.8 and the latest versions of TenFourFox (for their respective CPU), AuroraFox, and TenFourBird.
What am I missing?

How did you "try to install it"?
Also, what version of Firefox was on the iBook?

To see that message:
(typeof window.external == "object") && ((typeof window.external.AddSearchProvider == "unknown") || (typeof window.external.AddSearchProvider == "function")) is evaluating as FALSE...
Can you evaluate those typeof statements and let me know what you see.
I suspect I could improve the test...
(Separately I'm having some server trouble... hope to resolve soon)
