Firefox: Amazon Button ?

[Bony Maloney]

I would like this to link to Amazon UK, instead of .com. Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks Paul

if you install the en-gb version of firefox, it defaults to the co.uk site.

edit: if you can't be bothered to faff around re-installing, downoload these 2 files and save them to

c:\program files\mozilla firefox\searchplugins

(right click, save as)

Thank you. I have saved these 2 files to the mentioned folder, but it still opens up in .com??

have you selected the uk version from the drop down list as you'll probably have 2 amazons at the moment... you can of course delete the 2 files relating to the .com

It seems we have crossed wires maybe? I have just checked and realised I now don't have the amazon "search" engine from the drop down menu in the search bar, because I overwrote with the files I downloaded from the link you provided. It is the amazon "button" which is another plug in I am having trouble with. It still opens up with .com, and now when I check my search engine list amazon.co.uk is no longer there. Help dude

in that case i have no idea.

 

[Bony Maloney]

Yes that one

 

[marc2003]

well here's a uk version....

but you'll need to install this first to 'force' it to work as it's not compatible with 1.5
