ai, this is cool info, thanks! looks like it might be even more loosely coupled. (or more decoupled :)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Feb 5, 2008 4:29 AM, Diva Canto <<a href="mailto:diva@metaverseink.com">diva@metaverseink.com</a>> wrote:<br>

Opening search was a request we made to Linden Lab back in the summer,
to no response. However, when they switched to HTTP search, they
indirectly helped us by exposing a few new configuration settings of
the viewer with which you can choose any other HTTP-based search
engine... like SLBrowser :-)<br>
Here's information on how to do it:<br>

As for how to implement search, after reading your comments I'm
imagining a sim owner being able to publish to any and all search
servers they like. Then people can search from those providers anything
from multiple OpenGrids. For in-client HTTP search, we can run modified
viewers that let us connect to any search provider we've defined in
Preferences. (Also hack in <a>secondlife://</a> links to add search providers)
All this leaves, is how to implement Old Search (if we want to)...
honestly considering LL has been phasing this out anyway we might as
well just skip it and work on HTTP search.<br>
<br>
Also, I'm not sure but I think the HTTP search box URL is hardcoded in
the client to LL's servers so we'll have to mod the viewer just to get
that changeable.</div>
