Can you please explain how the address bar suggestions are implemented in Firefox. This is the feature where by all history urls matching my string are shown.
I understand that they would have stored the urls in a file and probably use regex to match the strings but can i know the exact implementation.
Thx.

This answer explains how it is done in Firefox 3.0 – 3.6. In Firefox 4.0, there is an additional step before the last query that is executed that searches pages that are open in tabs.
