Hello my telerik chums,
Please please please implement OpenSearch on your forums, it's oh so simple it'll only take you a few seconds! Go on you know you want to....
Your forum template page add the following in the <head> tag
Eh voila, now I can whack you into my IE search provider list (or firefoxy)!
Job Done :)
Wondering what the heck OpenSearch does?
See http://www.opensearch.org/Home for info.
