Opensearch Provider

[mikesherov]

Ported from http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/6670

It would be nice to see an OpenSearch provider added for the API documentation at  http://api.jquery.com so that the documentation can be searched using the search bar in the browser of your choice which supports the OpenSearch format. See  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSearch for more information.

The attached XML file is a mostly implemented example of the OpenSearchDescription.xml file which must be referenced in the header of a page/website supporting OpenSearch.

1   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
2   <OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/">
3     <ShortName>jQuery API Documentation Search</ShortName>
4     <Tags>jQuery api documentation</Tags>
5     <Description>
6       Search engine for jQuery API documentation
