Search for Firefox Bookmarks with given combination of 1 to 3 keywords

When I found that Firefox stores its bookmarks in a sqlite database places.sqlite I wrote the following PowerShell script to search for bookmark by keyword combination.

Here is the code:

ipmo WPK            
            
if (! $sqlitedll)            
{            
    $sqlitedll = [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFrom("C:\Program Files\System.Data.SQLite\bin\System.Data.SQLite.dll")             
}            
            
$ConnectionString = "Data Source=C:\Var\sqlite_ff4\places.sqlite"            
            
$conn = new-object System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteConnection             
$conn.ConnectionString = $ConnectionString             
$conn.Open()             
            
function Invoke-sqlite            
{            
    param( [string]$sql,            
           [System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteConnection]$connection            
           )            
    $cmd = new-object System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteCommand($sql,$connection)            
    $ds = New-Object system.Data.DataSet            
    $da = New-Object System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteDataAdapter($cmd)            
    $da.fill($ds) | Out-Null            
    return $ds.tables[0]            
}

You have to install System.Data.SQLite
from http://system.data.sqlite.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/downloads.wiki

I had problems when I checked the install in GAC option. Therefore I installed it without that option and supply the absolute path in my script.

Note: You can't open places.sqlite while Firefox is running. I copied it and coded the path of the copy into my script.

Now I can enter a keyword, press search and the grid fills. Double clicking starts the bookmark in the default browser.
