Way to search custom engines via right-click/updated version of AcidSearch?

Are there any current ways to search highlighted text in a customized list of engines via right-clicking it? I used to do it via AcidSearch but it hasn't been updated in years, and the author is not planning on doing so.
I'm currently using Firefox because it has that capability via add-ons, but I'd rather use Safari as I've noticed that version 4 can handle most pages FF can't, plus it's faster and FF 4 has been postponed to 2011. Thanks
P.S. I have a list of custom engines in the search bar via Glims but that's not what I'm asking about.

Hi Mark,
I think this application has a some potential. However, it has a long way to go to reach that potential.
Let's start with the toolbar (the blue button that appears on the taskbar) that is created by default when the application is installed. If you'll forgive my bluntness, it's a distracting waste of space and a flagrant misuse of the toolbar user interface.
If there is something wrong that requires urgent attention (like, for example, the hard disk is failing), then the program should open a dialog box. Otherwise, user notifications should be displayed in -- surprise -- the Notification Area. Please have your developers read and understand the Windows User Experience Interaction Guidelines. 
And seriously, what is up with the Coverflow-esque marketing garbage on the -- ugh -- "Ultimate Business Tool" tab? If you're wondering why this program has the reputation of being bloatware, look no further than here. This has no business being in a diagnostic application.
I could say more, but I think you get my drift. Remember the old version of PC Doctor? When all it did was scan your computer for problems and gave you a nice report, without trying to take over your taskbar or sell you stuff? Ah, the good old days.

  • Why can't I change search engines for right click?

    I used to be able to determine the search engine used for highlight/right click searching by selecting from the drop down menu in the search box. Whichever was the active search engine was the right click search engine. Firefox 34 only allows the default engine for right click. This is awful, it is one of the most important features to me in Firefox, depending on what I was searching for I often switched between various engines. Why the decision to reduce usability? I probably will go back to Opera if this function isn't re-instated.
    BTW, never in a million years will I use Yahoo. i made a habit of deleting it from my list of search engines, it always had a sort of National Enquirer feel about it. I also made a point of ignoring Yahoo Answers if they came up in a query. The amount of wrong information was stunning.

    The recent changes to the Search Bar are undoubtedly causing much consternation for some users. It was much easier to select a different search engine from the Search Bar with the old scheme

  • How do I get the search feature when I right click?

    I just recently ran an update. Now I do not have the "search" feature when I right click. I used this extensively, and would really like the option back. I had to uninstall some things when I ran the update, because I didn't want the search engine or toolbar that automatically installed with the update. How do I get my right click search feature back?

    The problem is that I've been able to do it in the past. I've been able to select any word and right click a search. Ever since I upgraded it, it's all messed up. I can't right click search, and I keep getting these stupid "You've won" websites popping up. Any suggestions on undoing the upgrade, and going back to the way things were?

  • ALV Grid Display - Dump when exporting (via right click)

    Hi,
    We have an ALV filled with a dynamic table because we needed dynamic columns. Our ALV has totals and subtotals. When exporting ALV via right click I get the following error:
    OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED
    I observed two facts:
    1.- If I disable subtotals and totals (commentig wa_cat-do_sum = 'X') export works properly, otherwise I get the dump.
    2.- Having totals and subtotals enabled, if I use export icon (top toolbar) the export works properly, but using right-click export gets the same dump.
    Our fieldcat is like this:
        CLEAR wa_cat.
        wa_cat-fieldname = g_cols.
        wa_cat-seltext_s = gi_subdiv-btrtl.
        wa_cat-seltext_l =  gi_subdiv-btrtl.
        wa_cat-datatype = 'INT4'.
        wa_cat-do_sum = 'X'.
        wa_cat-outputlen = '6'.
        APPEND wa_cat TO fs_fldcat.
    and we call ALV:
    * Call ABAP List Viewer (ALV)
      CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
        EXPORTING
          it_fieldcat            = fs_fldcat
          i_callback_program     = v_repid
          is_layout              = s_layout
          i_callback_user_command  = 'USER_COMMAND'
          it_sort                = t_sort
    *      i_callback_top_of_page = 'F_TOP_OF_PAGE'
          i_save                 = 'X'
        TABLES
          t_outtab               = <t_dyntable>.
    Any help will be appreciated!
    Thanks,

    Hi kat_k,
    I tried to do what you say, but I still get the same error!
    More ideas?

  • How can I contact customer service because my registration number according to Adobe cannot be upgraded; and Adobe's message to me said that I was registered for CS4; I am currently registered for CS5.  Is there no way to contact customer service via emai

    How can I contact customer service because my registration number according to Adobe cannot be upgraded; and Adobe's message to me said that I was registered for CS4; I am currently registered for CS5.  Is there no way to contact customer service via email or phone re this problem?

    Problems with registration you can contact our support team at Contact Customer Care.  Please make sure you are signed in and selecting the proper selections from the pull down.  If you continue to not be able to contact our support team then I would strongly recommend the use of a different web browser, computer, smart phone, or tablet.

  • Is there a way to bring back the "Open a New Tab" option via right-clicking on the Tab?

    I just upgraded to latest version of Firefox (6.0). Yesterday it informed me that an upgrade to Firefox 5.(something) was available and asked if I wanted to upgrade. I went for it. However, I hadn't used it since then till today. Now when I opened it today it asked me if I wanted to upgrade to version 6.0. Without hesitation, I went for it too.
    While this version looks nice, it feels a bit odd to use it. Previously whenever I wanted to open a new Tab, I right-clicked on any of the Tabs (active tab or any other Tab) and after right-clicking, it had the option to '''''Open a New Tab''''' along with few other options. Now there's no such option. There's the + button to open a new tab, but what if I want to open a link in a new tab by right-clicking on it? Similarly the option to Open in New Window is also missing.
    Is there a way to bring back those previous Tab options/settings? If yes, how?
    P.S. In my bookmark toolbar, when I click on a bookmark icon, it has the same options/settings as it previously had in the last version I used (last version I used was 3.something; while I'd upgraded to version 5.something I hadn't used it except for opening the browser when it asked me to upgrade to version 6.0). Options on right clicking the bookmark icon are:
    Open
    Open in a New Tab
    Open in a New Window
    New Bookmark...
    New Folder...
    New Separator
    Cut
    Copy
    Paste
    Delete
    Properties
    I'd also like to mention here that I know of the shortcut keys; so please don't waste your time by trying to help me that way. Thanks.

    No. The Tab bar is a regular toolbar in current Firefox versions, so you get the normal right-click context menu of a toolbar if you right-click the tab bar.
    You can double click on empty space on the tab bar to open a new tab if you do not want to use the new tab button.<br />
    You can drag a link on that new tab button to open that link in a new tab.<br />
    You can also drag the new tab button on another toolbar if you would like that better.<br />
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"<br />

  • TO ADD A CUSTOM ENTRY IN RIGHT CLICK POP UP MENU IN ORACLE HRMS FLEX FIELDS

    We are building a custom help for Oracle HRMS. For this I need to add a custom Help entry in the right click pop up menu. I did this by adding the code APP_POPUP.INSTANTIATE('POPUP10','Custom Help',TRUE,'LINE') in the APPCORE lib. After this change the right click menu shows the new entry 'Custom Help' when user right clicks in any of the form but the new entry Custom Help' doesn't show up when I right click in flexfields. I am sure I need to do some thing else for flex fields.. Does any one have any idea on this ?

    You have to refer to the Current Form, Current Block , Current Item so that the menu appears only in the form where you want to see.

  • Option to open new window or new tab via right click on taskbar icon in WinXP, Firefox 10 is not available

    When I right click on the Firefox tab/icon in the taskbar, there is no option for me to open a new window or new tab. I am only offered the ability to Move, Size, Minimize, Maximize or Close Firefox.

    That is the Windows System menu and is maintained by Windows XP.
    You need to open Firefox to open a new tab or create a shortcut with the -new-tab or -new-window command line switch if you want to do that via the desktop.

  • How to: Send any document using mail via "Right click"

    Hello-
    Does anyone know how to send a document, whether it is a Word, Eccel, Pages doc, etc. via a "Right Click" or similiar key stroke as we can on a WinPC? I am certain it is possible, and the closest commandIi have found is the "Services:Mail" drop down which is seemingly useless (i.e. I do not know how to make use of it). Any suggestions are appreciated. Thx

  • I cannot get a new tab to open when clicking the plus sign beside an open tab or clicking the "open new tab" button via right clicking my mouse.

    I can no longer get a new tab to open by clicking the new tab button. New tabs do open only when I click on a link in the current tab or by right clicking the home button and opening that specific page.

    This issue can be caused by the Ask<i></i>.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

  • Customizing items on right click of a page in siteadmin

    Hi,
    We have a requirement where we want to show users a "prompt" when user right clicks on a page and selects any of the items. Please see the attached snapshot on what i am talking about.
    I want something similar to what is prompted when someone clicks on delete and i want it on click of the activate button. Basically i want to ask the user - "are you sure you want to activate".
    has anyone done this before. Can you please advice how this can be achieved?
    Cheers!

    Why do you need paths & selections just use CQ.wcm.SiteAdmin.activatePage.call(this);
    Attach below a method just call this at /apps/wcm/core/content/siteadmin/actions/activate
    CQ.wcm.SiteAdmin.iActPage = function() {
        var selections = this.getSelectedPages();
        var msg = (selections.length > 1) ?
                  CQ.I18n.getMessage("You are going to activate the following pages: ") :
                  CQ.I18n.getMessage("You are going to activate the following page: ");
        msg += "<br/><br/>";
        var max = 7;
        for (var i=0; i<selections.length; i++) {
            if (i == max) {
                msg += CQ.I18n.getMessage("(and {0} more...)", [selections.length-i], "pages to activate") + "<br/>";
                break;
            var page = CQ.shared.XSS.getXSSRecordPropertyValue(selections[i], "title");
            if (!page) {
                page = selections[i].get("label");
            msg += page + "<br/>";
        msg += "<br/>" + CQ.I18n.getMessage("Are you sure?");
        var title = (selections.length > 1) ?
                CQ.I18n.getMessage("Activate Pages")
                : CQ.I18n.getMessage("Activate Page");
        CQ.Ext.Msg.show({
            "title":title,
            "msg":msg,
            "buttons":CQ.Ext.Msg.YESNO,
            "icon":CQ.Ext.MessageBox.QUESTION,
            "fn":function(btnId) {

    yes, I have indeed spoken with 28 different customer service rep.s, today is the 29th. and yes, i do not agree with the answer i am getting. I purchased a new phone in september, it is not functioning, and has not been, "fatal error" per tech support. they have finally sent me a replacement phone, and i received it a day and a half after it was "guaranteed" to arrive. the replacement phone is refurbished, i paid for a new phone, i would simply like to have a new phone to replace it.  or a refund to equal the difference in price btw purchasing a new phone vs. used..   i do not think i am being unreasonable, however, there are many people who read and reread policies on the phone. there is no way to contact the same rep. twice, so that one does not have to explain themselves again. no way to email anyone. the worst customer service i have ever dealt with ever.
