Hi,
I recently dragged this bookmarklet into my browser [forgot the site - will post it if it remember].
What it does is, once you highlight a word in the browser and then click on the bookmarklet, it will search Google using the define: search operator - very nifty for imporving vocabulary
As seen from the code, the search page opens up replacing the original page where that word had appeared - very inconvininet as you will have to go back again to read it
As I have no knowledge of javascript, my attempts at trying to modify the code to get the search page open up in a new tab, leaving the original page untouched has failed till now
Can some kind soul please do it for me
Thanks
