In FF4 the opensearch detection does not seem to work. how can I add a search engine , that has an opensearch xml but no plugin?
if you go to a webpage with an opensearch link tag like "<link rel="search" type="application/opensearchdescription+xml...." FF3.x highlighted the small arrow left of the search box and you could add the search engine. this does not seem to work in FF4.
If a searchengine for example for the intranet, does not offer a plugin, just the opnesearch xml, how can one add it to the search engines in FF4?

You do not get the blue glow on the search engine icon in Firefox 4, but you should still see the "Add ... site" entry in the menu if you click the search engines icon on the Navigation Toolbar.
No I don't get the "add site" menu entry on a website with opensearch. I work with FF 4.01 on Mac OSX.
