Hi all, Back in October I proposed the SearchBox API to the whatwg [1]. It enables "instant" style interaction between the user agent's search box and the default search provider's results page. Since then it has been implemented by Google web search and Chrome. You can demo it by checking "Enable Instant for faster searching and browsing" in Chrome's preferences. Some suggested this list might be a better place to poll for interest and discuss the API. Are there any user agents or search providers who are interested in working to standardize this interface[2]? Any feedback is welcome as well. -Tony [1] http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2010-October/028818.html [2] http://dev.chromium.org/searchbox
