Two minor updates to my blog today:
- Following the instructions, I created a search plug-in for TheAquarium and my blog. So if you are viewing this blog in Firefox (and other browsers that support Open Search Description Format) and click on the search bar, then you’ll see an option to add both the search engines. Alternatively, you can also drop this file in
searchpluginsdirectory of Firefox and it will show up after restarting the browser. Use this file for adding my blog search engine. I still need to debug why correct images are not showing up when Firefox auto discover the engines and the page is bookmarked. - Following the instructions, created a Favicon for my blog. So now whenever you visit my blog in a browser (tested in Firefox), a small image appears at the front of the URL area. This same image is also visible as an icon in the tab title.
Technorati: firefox searchengine theaquarium favicon icons
I looked at your xml file and didn’t find anything wrong. So I guess, it’s just one of these mysteries between human and computer. Or perhaps different png format than Firefox could eat
Anyway, thanks for the tip for favicon, I need to add it in my style also.

To spice up your favicon, make it animated. Not too difficult. Instructions, along with some design suggestions, are at the above url, http://www.cathetel.com/favicon.htm . It will activate in Netscape and Firefox, but Internet Explorer wants the static file version, so special code is required for your Head section. Not sure if you can adjust that in your blog, but certainly in a web page.
