 Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2004 1:15 pm Post subject: Fordmods 'Lite' Launched |
 |
|
Hi All,
I'm pleased to announce that we have released Fordmods Lite! Its still under development, but it should be stable enough for some field testing 
It can currently be accessed via the link at the top of the page 'Fordmods Lite', or by simply surfing to http://lite.fordmods.com
Its prime purpose is to serve as your Internet Explorers' homepage. It incorporates all the search functions you need (Google, Yahoo, eBay, Fordmods) and also allows you to store your favourite bookmarks.
As you will see it is a cut down version of our current Home/Portal page, and should load quicker, but still give you a good indication of whats happening @ fordmods.
Check it out, if you like it - set it as your homepage to make sure you don't miss a thing.
Please PM me if you have any suggestions, questions or problems.
Enjoy!

MSN is working on a new search engine (Kinda like Yahoo local, mixed with a search query builder)....
Anyways, the search results from the BETA site are different to MSN's current search, so I guess you might want to whack that up there as well
http://beta.search.msn.com
Also, here is a bit of code for 2 other search engines
www.sensis.com.au
www.microsoft.com (For the Technet / MSDN Junkies and such)
---------------------------------------------
if (document.search_block.search_engine.value == 'sensis')
{
window.location.href('http://www.sensis.com.au/search.do?location=&searchIndex=global&x=40&y=9&find=' + document.search_block.search_keywords.value);
return false;
}
if (document.search_block.search_engine.value == 'microsoft')
{
window.location.href('http://search.microsoft.com/search/results.aspx?st=b&na=88&View=en-us&qu=' + document.search_block.search_keywords.value);
return false;
} |
