Still can't get Googlebar to install
Authored by: ts0003 on Nov 13, '04 09:22:51AM

When I do a Google search with the Googlebar, all the terms show up at the extreme right end of the Googlebar. On Windows and Linux, I can click the yellow marker and the terms all get highlighted in different colors on the web page. On Mac OS X, nothing happens. Why is this? Is there a way to fix it?

I updated, and GoogleBar's "highlight" feature doesn't work for me either now - but Firefox's built in one does. Just hit command-F as if you're going to search for something, and a new panel appears on the bottom. Type in your word and then click on "highlight."

Holy crap, in all the hubbub of the upgrade, fixing incompatible extensions, etc., I didn't notice that one of the coolest features of GoogleBar isn't working! I don't have time right now, but someone should submit this as a bug report to both the Firefox team and Googlebar team, since it's too hard to tell where this bug actually lies. Oh well, like the other guy pointed out, at least FF's find/highlight feature still works.
