Tech: Autodiscoverable Search Plugins For MiLB.com, Baseball Cube
I've created search plugins for MiLB.com and The Baseball Cube that use the new OpenSearch structure. The one for MiLB.com should be compatible with recent versions of Internet Explorer, which now support it. Thanks to a recent change at the Cube, only POST queries are allowed, which at the moment are unsupported by IE.
Those of you using Firefox 2.0 and up can simply use the autodiscover feature from the home page right here. Just click on the search icon on the upper right of your Firefox browser (which looks like this):
All you have to do is click on the "Add 'MiLB.com'" to add a link for MiLB.com's player search. (Really, it's only the last name of the player search.)
For reference, there's also a wealth of sports-related search plugins for both Firefox and IE here. Enjoy.
Update 8/6: Thanks for the link back from THT by Matthew Carruth.
