Is it possible to create a plug-in/add-on for Firefox's searchbar? Every time I run a search in the NZB Index, the URL doesn't provide the typed search parameters.

Also, the NZB search kinda sucks.

For example, searching for "The Resident" doesn't bring any results, but entering "Resident" does even tho' the movie title I was searching for is named "The Resident."

A search using the firefox search bar will still use FST's search, so you'll get the same results...
But yes it's possible if it's still wanted.

Yea, I'm actually using "Universal Search & IE8 Accelerators (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hmcgifbelcmjecmkapejifljephjabjd)" for Chrome, but it's suppose to be compatible with the Firefox searchbar addons.

The format I need is something like:

http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query={s}

Where {s} is the URL where the search terms should appear, but the FST nzb search spits out some weird searchid.

Try this, then:

Thank you. Form manipulation can be a lifesaver sometimes. :D
