Google Search Sidebar v1.6.1 - Wikipedia, Dictionary.com, Flickr, and Youtube Results

Adds a sidebar with search results from Dictionary.com, Wikipedia, Flickr, and Youtube. Please report any bugs.

In this release I cleaned up the code a lot, fixed some bugs, and made use of the new YouTube API. YouTube results should be better than before. I also made the sidebar float on the right hand side of the screen instead of being at a fixed position from the left. I'm not sure if I like it better this way, or the way it was before. In the next release, I plan to implement sidebar options, so you can customize what is on the sidebar, the sidebar position, number of results, etc.

This script has only been tested on the U.S. version of Google.

Note: If you have a previous version of this script installed, you must uninstall or disable it before installing this version.

Stopped working with Firefox 2.0.0.14 on my Vista-32bit machine. Any ideas?

This doesn't seem to work with the version intended for Firefox 3. Any one know how to fix it?

This is my fav script! But, like ollieg said, doesn't work with GreaseKit (for Safari). Any one know how to make it so?

styles += 'div.t.n.bt { clear: both; }';

Add that so the layout doesn't mess up when there are no results.

I tried using this with CustomizeGoogle addon feature with "Stream search results" on, it doesnt seem to work at all with this option enabled, is it possible to add support for this feature in the near future? If so, it would be greatly apperciated, thanks.

Just tested this, and it is a nice piece of work. I would add this to the list of essential GreaseMonkey scripts for anyone.

Big fan of this!
would be a lot better if it would stick to the right side instead of using a minimum distance from the left side though, usefull for big resolution screens.
Now it feels narrow.

www.thefreedictionary.com is a great free, online dictionary. I use the Dictionary Tooltip add-on a whole lot, and this would pretty much round out the script.
