By default, most of the engines will be displayed in the submenu 'Search for"..."'Modifications:1. Replaced hidden preference"separatorItems"by"menuItems"with the format[|]enginename:label:accesskey separated by comma. A sample menuItems preference is made default (Google, Wikipedia, The Free Dictionary would be brought outside the menu, and a separator is made before Amazon.com):Google:$S:G,Wikipedia (en):Wikipedia:w,The Free Dictionary:$S:d,|Amazon.coma. [|]enginename: Engine name with optional"|"in front to add a separator before item.b. label: To position it outside the submenu, and specify the label name to be used. $S is replaced by the engine name. Leave it blank to keep it in submenu (default).c. accesskey: The key to press on the keyboard to trigger the command when the menu/submenu is open.2. Search current site for selected text using Google (done in version 0.4.6.2)3. Right-click opens item in current tab (done in version 0.4.6.2)4. Clicking on the popup menu item itself will act like the default context-selectsearch item, or submit to a user-specified engine. (Place an asterisk in front of engine name without any other prefix.)5. Allow hiding of engines inside submenu. (Place an exclamation mark in front of engine name without any other prefix.)Product's homepage Requirements: · Mozilla Firefox What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ] · 1. If pin-popup is turned on, and left/right-clicking an engine, if set to open tabs in background, might open two searches -- thanks to feedback from Ken Schuster · a. This bug-fix should finally solve all problems associated with two search results opening · b. I trapped the click event so that I can get middle-clicks and differentiate between left and right click, but there is no way to cancel the command event that occurs after left/right click event, and this command event is needed for access-key triggered searches. I therefore set a variable to remember that I have searched already so that I don't have double-tabs appearing. But to allow the pin-popup mode, I needed to reset this variable, which I set a timeout for. But some people encountered a rare problem in which the timeout handler was interleaved between the click and command events. So by the time the command event came the variable was reset. This is an unexpected but not unacceptable behavior which is unlike the bad behaviour observed in the previous bug which is completely reproducible. �.You can free download Context Search X from Softpedia now.
