Orgone's Top Tip: Omniwiki! Look up any Wikipedia article directly from any web page by merely highlighting the word you want to know more about and clicking a button! Use this javascript as a link in your browser toolbar (make sure you get it all on one line, a simple Copy/Paste will probably only get the first line):
javascript:q = %22%22 + (window.getSelection ? window.getSelection() : document.getSelection ? document.getSelection() : document.selection.createRange().text); if (!q) q = prompt(%22Enter a Wikipedia topic:%22, %22%22); /* if (q!=null) { location=%22http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22 + escape(q).replace(/ /g, %22+%22);} void 0; */ if (q!=null) { WindowObjectReference = window.open(%22http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%22 + escape(q).replace(/ /g, %22+%22), %22DescriptiveWindowName%22, %22resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes%22); } void 0;
When you highlight a word and click the link, a new window will open up with the Wikipedia article for that word! You can change the URL and have the link take you to Wiktionary definitions, or even just a Google search on the term (put in "http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=") So there it is, have fun with it!
