It only shows me the 5 at the top, google/live/aol/ask/yahoo (and below that some keyword ones it imported form FF). Never a new one. > We also support the JavaScript window.external.AddSearchProvider() call that > Mycroft and other sites use, to let you add an engine by clicking on a link > or button. Doesn't do anything for me, and no error. (The js console is horrible, but doesn't seem to be an error after hunting around for how to find js errors in Chrome. A try/catch doesn't catch an error.) Yes, other js is working. Yes, using recommended js for opensearch that works in FF (window.external.AddSearchProvider). What could be wrong? Chrome says it is up-to-date. Also, doesn't seem a very good system even if it does work. How do you actually find/select the search engine you want to use? Yahoo is installed; I haven't a clue how to select it without setting it as the default. And if you're installing every opensearch engine you encounter, that will be an overloaded nightmare, like adding every rss feed, so what is it adding exactly? We need notification and to add only the ones we want to add, no?
