Code Ref 0.1

Code Ref is a BETA toolbar for firefox that provides either direct function reference lookups, or passthrough to a documentation site's search function.
Right now, there's just input boxen for php, perl, mysql, and postgres.
This is extremely beta software, and i'll be happy to help if you end up using it, but it's going to be very buggy. Use this extension at your own risk!

Download v0.1-2 Right-click and choose "Save As...", then "Open File" in Firefox to install.- Tested on MacOSX Firefox 0.9.3

I wrote this extension because I was annoyed at the multiple clicks it takes to look up functions on php.net. I'd rather just go straight to a function's usage to refresh my memory.

Future plans:

• Add a settings interface to allow for entry / dynamic configuration of new search interfaces
• Extend support to mozilla and plan for Firefox 1.0

Changelog

• 0.1-2 - Changed install.rdf to support Firefox 1.0PR
• 0.1 - Initial Release
