I thought I'd look into the code but never took the time... just gave up.
I did think about tweaking:

var bCharCode = (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 3); var defaultSettings = { sites: defaultSites, switchToSiteModeOnShortcut: false, switchToSiteModeOnTabClick: false, searchBoxKey: { ctrl: true, alt: false, shift: true, charCode: (bCharCode?32:0), keyCode: (bCharCode?0:32) }

and use alt instead ? (ctrl:false, alt:true)

This is totally awesomold . sadly, the dev already build a firefox extension and wont update this scripts any longer.

Hopefully someone kind enough to continue the development...

Problem with Zap2It, replied by castaban

I find this script has a problem at zap2it site. You highlight a word, click one of the shortcuts, the frame opens, looks like it is loading the page, but nothing is displayed. Anywhere on site will do.
Example:

Anybody having the same problem. I am using FF 3.5 with Windows 2000

yes, I have the same problem. I've tried to disable all the scripts and all the add-ons but it didn't solve the problem.Any suggestion?
Moreover I cannot edit my website list cause it didn't recognize # (option + à {italian keyboard layout})

amazing script overall, probably the most useful of them all.

dicitionary popups work great except for the urban one, which popups fine for the first 2 seconds, then a dark blue screen erases everything !

:-) would be cool if you could solve this

For me it opens with Command+C... maybe there's a conflict somewhere but I can't see what it could be.
Any idea?
Does someone else have this problem?

Google searches stopped working?, replied by logan the T

Google won't let me do a LookItUp search from:

http://www.autoadmit.com/

I got this in the LookItUp sidebar:

"Forbidden
Your client does not have permission to get URL /search?hl=en&q=scale&[MY-SEARCH-TERM-HERE]&css=div from this server."

Any ideas?

In order for the new Searchbastard addon to go public on amo (addons.mozilla.org), it needs reviews. You can help accelerating the process by reviewing it here: https://addons.mozilla.org/da/firefox/addon/8030

Hi guys,
For some time now, I have been working on a firefox add-on that does what lookitup2 does - and much more. The add-on will render this script more or less obsolete. I'm currently in the final stages of development, so hold on...

Running latest version with FF3.0 on a Mac.
* shift+ctrl+space does nothing. Can it be because I use Mac keyboard?
* When i do shortcuts, for example command+C to copy or command+D to bookmark, LookItUp2 opens. Should it be like this?
Thanks!

Brilliant script, it really is incredibly powerful. For sites that require a POST request, there is a "bridging site" that will convert a URL from GET to POST here:

Would it be possible to add an option to add modifier keys to the site shortcuts?

Thank you very much for the prompt fixes! I am enjoying using this to help read texts in spanish, allowing me to look up words easily on the fly.

I confirm shift + ctrl + space does not work for me in FF 2.
I would like to also comment that having a vertical scroll bar is very important. As the window the results are displayed is narrow, there is a good chance that it will not fit there and it is not easily to force a scroll.

Thank You! This script is one of the best around, I use it daily. Your work is superb.

I have a few questions, and I'm not sure if the problem is on my end or a bug.

I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.13 and LookItUP2 version 0.5.91

First, during a single or a combo search, the bottom pane lacks a horizontal scroll bar. I'm just curious if this is intentional or a bug. If this is intentional, is there a way of adding a horizontal scroll bar?

Second, I see you fixed a problem with shift + ctrl + space in beta 3, though I cant seem to get it to work in firefox 2.

Thanks again for your hard work.

Hi fixepah,

I have added Jigsaw in the "Add site" panel in settings, in the group: People and Companies.

Hi Sune,
Yes, the ctrl+shift+space shortcut was not working in FF3. I don't use this feature myself, so I didn't notice. It has been fixed

hi, I can't get this to work. When I type shift+ctrl+spacebar nothing happens. I thought it might conflict with some other extension but I tried in a new completely empty profile (except for greasemonkey, of course :)), and still nothing. I'm on XP, firefox 3 beta 5. ( I just upgraded, it didn't work either on beta 4)

any ideas?

thanks for this awsome script :)

I have implemented fix by Billy Blue, and fixed settings as pointed out by Alvin. You only need these fixes if you run the FireFox 3 Beta.

Looking at the screenshot of settings from the previous version, there is definitely something wrong with the settings dialogue here. I can't even SEE the URL field text.

See here for a screenshot:

@Billy Blue,

Thanks for that fix - would you perhaps know how to make the settings box bigger? It is TINY on my screen, not sure if it's a bug or not (ff3) but it is practically unusable at the size it is (about 280x130 with lots of scrolling). I have tried editing the JS but can't seem to find what's setting this size.
