Subject: R-2.1.0 search engine works with mozilla browser but not firefox
In-Reply-To: <7E4C06F49D6FEB49BE4B60E5FC92ED7A01DA7A67@pnlmse35.pnl.gov>
It works with Firefox 1.0.3 for me on Fedora Core 3.
Please consult the appropriate manual as linked from the search page: this
is a configuration issue local to you. One irritating part of FC3's
updates is that they do not (at least for me) copy the plugins across, so
I had manually to fix up my Firefox 1.0.3 update yesterday. Sounds like
your plugin is not set up correctly.
