Add to Search Bar
Install from addons.mozilla.org.Have you ever wanted to have a search engine available in Firefox’ search bar that isn’t shipped by default, but this site doesn't have the 'glowing' search bar icon to add its search (like e.g. YouTube)? With Add to Search Bar you can add the search functionality of any page to the search box with no effort.

Discontinued: Organize Search Engines
I'm sorry to say that I've discontinued any work on this extension. Luckily, Baton34 seems to have picked up maintenance. You can find his fork of the extension on his Github.
You also have too many search engines in the search bar? Never find the engine you're currently searching for? Then this extension is for you! You can put the engines in folders or separate them with a separator line.
-
Search on Engine Change
Install from addons.mozilla.org.With this extension, when there is text in the search bar and you change the search engien selection, the new search engine will be searched immediately for the terms in the search bar. No need to press enter or click the search button.

Greasemonkey Scripts
-
Correct Title
Some web sites (e.g. phpBB forums) use a title in the form “Site Name :: Category – Page”. Especially when I have lots of tabs open, I prefer “Page – Category :: Site Name”. The site can usually be identified from its favicon.
This script corrects this. You’ll have to add pages where you want it to run to the include list in the Greasemonkey preferences.
If the page title you want to fix isn’t separated by “::” and “-”, you’ll have to edit the first line without “//” to list the separators as used by this web site.
-
AMO Link
If you, like me, visit Firefox forums or similar regularly, maybe you also often see people only posting the url of an add-on not saying which one it is. This script queries the AMO API for every link to an add-on it finds and replaces the url in the link text with the add-on’s name.
Known Issue:
Because the AMO API can only be used with add-ons no longer in the sandbox, this script only works for these. -
Go Home
After a certain amount of time the user is inactive (default is 10 minutes) this script redirects a tab to the homepage.
This appears to be useful for Kiosk browsing environments – after someone leaves the computer the next person can start at the home page again.
-
Page Reloader
This script refreshes the page after 10 minutes without any activity (mouse clicks, key presses, mouse movemets)
I don’t know what this is useful for, I made this script on request.
