LibX at TC3

I have created a version of LibX for my library at http://libx.org/editions/download.php?edition=5051E541.
It includes many databases that I got to work using the bookmarklet feature of the edition builder. Is there any way to get databases that do not send a search as part of the URL to work in LibX? In particular I am thinking of Ebsco, Elsevier, OCLC FirstSearch, and many of the Gale products.

I would also like some input on what I have done. My goal is to get the majority of our databases to work with LibX. We have FireFox installed on all computers on campus as well as IE.

Library Toolbar Update

I have added more functionality to our toolbar. I have added a button to post a page to del.icio.us. Below is the code I used based on code from the del.icio.us website. I am going to investigate other javascripts to add in this way to the tool bar.

<a href=”http://del.icio.us/post&#8221; onclick=”window.open(‘http://del.icio.us/post?v=4&noui&jump=
close&amp;url=’+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+’&title=’+encodeURIComponent(document.title), ‘delicious’, ‘toolbar=no,width=700,height=400’); return false;” title=”Post to Del.icio.us”><img src=”http://images.del.icio.us/static/img/delicious.small.gif&#8221; valign=”middle”></a>
