I was talking about integration in *wikipedia*, but if I understand correctly, you are talking about doing query on my web site from wikipedia search box ? If yes, it will probably be a little bit difficult because of browser protection, you can not use http request in javascript to another host.
Ok, so that rules out integrating via a user script until the search database is hosted at wikipedia?
Yes, until the XMLHttpRequest query is done on the same domain and if you want to be efficient, the Tcp/Ip server I wrote to handle queries needs to be on the same host to avoid redirections cost (You can wrote a php wrapper on wikipedia.org that redirect queries to suggest.speedblue.org but that would not be efficient).
In the meantime, I think you can achieve that with GreaseMonkey.
Maybe, I do not know very well this firefox extension.
