Hey, I already did that! :-)

I called mine mwdPopup, so your name is definitely better, I'll see if I can
remove the duplication before you wake up again.

Updated mwd.xml is attached.  (I'm not sure how easy it is anymore to pull
new searches from CVS or dqsd.net)

Later,

I'm just now readaing some of these emails, and I missed your suggestion.

I've improved it quite a bit this evening (links work, etc.).

I re-installed CVS and committed it (also attached).

Do you have any links? I'm curious to find out more about this -- I've had
this problem since before IE7, and I think it's in part because I run as a
non-admin.

Cheers,

RE: [DQSD-Users] new mwdx search (Merriam-Webster search, results in a pop-up window)

[Shawn K. Hall]

Hi Kim,

> ...see if it works for you...

Works fine for me, however, may I suggest offering an option that can
alternate the functionality of mwd through the localprefs?

This code will do it (replaces line 28):
if (typeof strMWDPopup == "undefined") strMWDPopup = 0;
if(( args.switches.length > 0 ) || (strMWDPopup !== 0))

Then if someone has the "strMWDPopup" variable set to anything other
than zero the dictionary lookups will appear in the popup, while
otherwise (and default) they appear in a new window.

This does not take into account situations where the user wants to
default to popups but wants to visit the site, though.


> XmlHttp is acting up on my machine, so I can't see if it 
> works properly...

In my reading (having not tested it yet myself, in part because of this)
I've seen that IE7 has some XmlHttp+JavaScript issues. The consensus
from those I've seen discussing it is "don't use IE7" - no workarounds
are available.

Hi again,

Here's a replacement mwd.xml that takes a /p[opup] switch -- can you try it
out and see if it works for you, Glenn?
XmlHttp is acting up on my machine, so I can't see if it works properly, but
I've just copied and pasted your code into a separate function in mwd.

Cheers,
