= '''Release v.03.2''' =
Similarly to [http[Localized Search in Firefox Search Box://zenitRelease v.senecac03.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Localized_Search_in_Firefox_Search_Box:_Release_v1#Release v.03.1 | release version .03.1]], this release (v.03.2) dynamically removes the auto-detected search engine when the user navigates to a different web site unless the user manually adds the "Add <Search Engine>" menu item from the searchbar's list of available engines. This version also dynamically removes the dynamically "Added" search engine from the list of installed engines on the searchbar list and places it on the list of available engines as an "Add <Search Engine>" menu item when the user clicks the searchbar's button to display the engine list. At that point, the user can choose to manually "Add" the auto-detected search plugin and it will remain on the list of installed engines when the user navigates to another web site.
