What were you trying to do?
I use the locally installed mozilla (out of infoagents). It
It has a feature that when you type text into the location bar,
under the history is a "Search [Search Engine] for [your text]"
option. I am trying to use it with google.
What's wrong:
Frequently when I try to do this for the first time in a session
(not sure if it's first time in the execution of the program
or first time in a login, and it doesn't always happen) the
bar simply reads "Search for [text]" (ie, no search engine)
and does nothing until I open up preferences, change to the
"Internet Search" panel, and click OK (no actual changes necessary).
What should have happened:
I should not need to set it manually every time (especially
since the idea is to save about 5 seconds of time).
This might be related to the use of the same program on
multiple architectures.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
Sorry, none.
Thanks!
