Site search

I’ve added an OpenSearch provider to the site. Compatible browsers (Firefox 2 and Internet Explorer 7 for example) will allow the user to search the site from the browser’s search box thus providing better integration and improved user experience

Adding OpenSearch to your site is very easy. Create a file with content as defined by the OpenSearch Description Document Specification and then link that file in for all pages from your site (typically add it to a file common to all pages such as the header) using the <link rel=”search”> directive.

At the same time I’ve expanded the search scope to all site content rather than just the posts using the ‘Search Everything’ plugin and added a favicon which should be displayed in the address bar when visiting the site.

Any issues then please let me know.
