Couldn't get it to work before but, by following the release notes to get around the excite.com default, I got it working...
Sweet! Thanks!
In Chimera: Highlight text - Cmd-Shift-F runs the Google search!
Sweet! Thanks!
(1) Can we get this going in Mozilla?
In Mozilla, you just need to highlight the words, control-click and choose Web Search for «whatever text you highlighted». You can specify your search engine from the preferences.
alternative approach
I'm not sure what you mean by building a toolbar item. In Chimera, you can customize the toolbar and add the search button to it. Using the above mods, the toolbar search button (or cmd-shift-f) will pull up the search sheet. Can you directly modify the preferred search site in the Mozilla prefs? If so, you could probably just paste the javascript into the url field. You can't access these prefs in Chimera (yet) so you have to do it the hard way.
alternative approach
I'd like to be able to highlight the text, then click a tool on the toolbar.
alternative approach
thanks! this worked like a charm for Chimera. :) would be nice if the sheet could have a pulldown of several search engine options, no? |
