Adding Smart Keywords to Your Online Searches

Firefox lets you define your own smart keywords: abbreviations to use as a URL
shortcut for a particular search engine. If you define ws as a smart keyword for the
Wikipedia search for example, you can now type ws SEARCHTERM into the location
bar to search Wikipedia for SEARCHTERM.
To assign a shortcut for a search engine from the search bar, click the icon to the left
of the search bar and open the Manage Search Engines dialog. Mark a search engine
and open the Edit Keyword dialog.
It is also possible to define a smart keyword for any search field on a Web site. Proceed
as follows:
1 Right-click on the search field and choose Add a Keyword for this Search from
the menu that opens. The Add Bookmark dialog appears.
2 In Name, enter a descriptive name for this smart keyword.
