Also, I suspect that it would be really easy to adapt the Internet Explorer Everything Search Button for PM so that the OS-impaired among us can have neat searching capabilities :)	[reply]

Oh my god, The button is the same for IE(os independant): `javascript: Q=document.selection.createRange().text; if(!Q){void(Q=prompt('Gimme%20some%20text%20to%20search%20E2!%20Now',' +'))}; if(Q)location.href='http://www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node='+escape(Q) +;` [download] "cRaZy is co01, but sometimes cRaZy is cRaZy". - crazyinsomniac	[reply] [d/l]

But, ivey's post doesn't work anymore because apparently vroom is filtering out links like <A HREF="javascript:...">. That's why I couldn't put the code in a link and say "right click this link".	[reply]
