Hi all-

Praveen has configured a Mapdex search plugin for Mozilla/Firefox.  This allows you to search GIS layer names in Mapdex directly from your browsers navigation toolbar.



The plugin has been submitted to http://mycroft.mozdev.org/ and you will be able to install it from  http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html?name=mapdex&submitform=Search

After installing the plugin you have to wait for ~15 seconds before clicking the search bar.  Sometimes it takes 10-15 seconds for the image to appear alongside the plugin name.

Once you install and find it working you can click on the "Judge it" link and tell whether the plugin is working or not.

Cheers,

Jeremy

Hi all-

We are proud to release the Mapdex REST interface.  Representational State Transfer (REST) is a lightweight interface to the Mapdex database.  Simply send an HTTP request to a URL with your search parameters and get back an xml document containing the information that makes up the Mapdex database.  This database is updated approximately once a week.  If you use it in an application, let us know.  We love the feedback.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cheers,

Jeremy
