Query php.net function definitions – Scalable for any URL

[pixelchute]

Have you ever been right in the middle of coding and wanted an official PHP function definition, etc? What about wanting to Goooooogle for a phrase right inside your source?

These JavaScript macros should cover it ;)

php.net function definition

	// Create windows scripting host shell object

	var oShell = new ActiveXObject( "WScript.Shell" );

	

	// Grab the selection and escape for URL

	search = escape( document.selection.text );

	

	if( search != '' )

		// Search for it!

		oShell.Run('http://www.php.net/search.php?show=quickref&pattern='+search);

	else alert( 'Please make a selection!' );

	

In-line google search

	// Create windows scripting host shell object

	var oShell = new ActiveXObject( "WScript.Shell" );

	

	// Grab the selection and escape for URL

	search = escape( document.selection.text );

	

	if( search != '' )

		// Search for it!

		oShell.Run(''http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&btnG=Google+Search&q='+search);

	else alert( 'Please make a selection!' );

	

Simply highlight your text, and run the Macro!

shastafir, on the old forums, also provided a great way to Execute a macro via the context-menu (right-clicking…)

Assuming you have EE version 6+:
* Click menu Tools > Customize Menus…
* Select “Context Menu” in the “Menu to Customize” list
* Select the desired location and click “Insert Above/Below/Right”
* In the Menu Properties dialog select “My Macros” in the Category list
* Select the desired macro in the “Commands” list
* Note: Unfortunately you cannot change the name of the command to something other than the macro name. (Yutaka, this could be considered a improvement request;) )
* Click OK a few times and test the right click
