dear karol, i am not at ease, you know ?

" you'll be able to get on the spot translation (Google based) displayed on a small floating pop op". i 'd love too much!!

first what is http://userscripts.org/scripts/source/23868.use... it do not execute (see prev message)
but the message GM..sucessfully installed is gentle,, then i visit firefox, tools, GMonkey, manage scripts
the GMFrench Monkey is the first and only, it displays a 'list of authorized pages types, *fr/ etc.. i dont but dont see the meaning..
(any text belonging to any page browsed by Firefox is a goo place to use GMFrench no???

then,
i followed instructions, links, in disorder, on the very complex http://dictionnaire.mediadico.com/option
(ergonomically deficient for me , because computer dialogs was my first job in 1972..)
this is done,

so i got a 'one more tool-bar ' , i dont care the text area as i dont want to type,

then i mark a word (dbl klik) ,
then i inspect my right click ('contextual'..) where, disapointedly, nothing appear
then i clik the DICO icon, and HORROR !!!!! http://dictionnaire.mediadico.com/option AGAIN ??
i am very very far from "a "on the spot , never leave the page I was on" translator. " you were telling above.
sincerely i still hope that the "small floating pop op" will gently pop up.

it would be nice to have something similar to the contextual 'orthographic' pop up, where few correct words are displayed, and chosen at a clik then replaced in line..
it would be interesting too to have other (like synonyms, ..citations, slang, ) ... but for to day, i just need your "small floating pop op"

i hope i am not far
you can help a real future fan ,, merci merci

ps: the http://dictionnaire.mediadico.com/option is horrible! (sorry to be frank, it must be reviewed completely, the dialog are like spaghettis : many tails, no head, and too mmany links , very confusing and turning in rings all the time, sorry
the stuff is probably excellent...but user interface is 50% of a 'product' ,
mes felicitations tout de meme !! j'espere que vous me pardonnez ce ton un peu nerveux,, il est possible que je sois juste 'à coté ' du but , .. pace e salute !

hope this sort out the mess
The script should work

i wait your tool, merci merci ( excuse moi j'ai oublié que tu parles francais !)

Hi Alan
Thanks for the feedback
As to your question, please note that there's a "<<" link. if you'll click on it , you'll be able to see the set of texts that were translated. This can be copied (copy & past ) onto when ever you need.
Regards
Karol

Wonderful tool. It's great to be reading along on lemonde.fr, and be able to translate remarks about international law & diplomacy without having to dig for a dictionary.

There is a puzzle for me--I can't figure out the display how to display the translation history mentioned in these comments. If I can get that, I can build a set of study notes.

version 1.03 released.
I had to update the script due to changes Google made to it's translate interface.

Enjoy

Script was updated:
* pane color was changed to yellow
* Font color to black
* There was also a nasty bug where the translation window didn't reposition itself when scrolling. this was fixed.

enjoy

I found out yesterday that Google translate service suspects use abuse when running this script (probably when the translation rate is fast).

So I've updated the script to move to babelfish in case Google refuses to translate.
Once you get click again, moving to babelfish message, reselect and you're done
