Making your own toolbar!

what language/technology to be used

[IronEyes]

hello,

first of all this is my first post here.. hi everybody..

i want to make a toolbar for my website, but i couldnt find any good article telling me at least what languages and techniques to be used!

i tryed google and all i got was commercial sites helps me to create a toolbar using their own wizard, which is something i dont want. i prefer learning and doing it by my own..

any body did it before.. any helpful reference maybe. you know it would be nice for any good site to get one.

Thanks

hello,

when i said toolbar.. i ment like yahoo toolbar.. google toolbar..

so my website can feed this bar with links and search ability.. it could be search within my site forums.. etc..

so any idea? :)

I've been searching for this for some years now, heh...
I did eventually bow down and used one of those 3rd-party tools, only to remove it later... I don't want someone else's toolbar, I really don't.

I don't get it, either... Yet another way the web apparently fails us miserably, it really shouldn't be that hard but there is nothing out there, at least not via google.
