How to add google chrome omnibox-search support for your site?

I have a question about how to enable the "press tab to search" feature in google chrome for my own website.

I already linked an opensearch.xml document and I have the following included:

<Url type="text/html" template="http://localhost:3000/?search={searchTerms}"/>

However this still doesnt work. Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

Here is opensearch.xml example that works for me:

<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/">
    <ShortName>Example.com</ShortName>
    <LongName>Example.com Search</LongName>
    <Description>Search through Example.com</Description>
    <Query role="example" searchTerms="example search"/>
    <InputEncoding>UTF-8</InputEncoding>
    <OutputEncoding>UTF-8</OutputEncoding>
    <AdultContent>false</AdultContent>
    <Language>en-us</Language>
    <SyndicationRight>open</SyndicationRight>
    <Developer>Example.com</Developer>
    <Tags>tag1,tag2</Tags>
    <Image height="16" width="16" type="image/vnd.microsoft.icon">http://example.com/favicon.ico</Image>
    <Url type="text/html" template="http://example.com/search.html?q={searchTerms}"/>
    <Url type="application/x-suggestions+json" template="http://example.com/suggestions.html?query={searchTerms}"/>
</OpenSearchDescription>

I think localhost and/or non-standard port 3000 might also contribute to the problem.

how do you find the url that leads directly to the query box on the target site? (in google translate for instance) – Commissar
