# popup url extension

[Firefox extension link](https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/popup-url)

Quick popup. Select a text, and then pop up a window in current page not a new tab immediately, with content based on your selection and configured url. Particularly useful for translating, dictionary looking up, wiki searching.

Before using this extension, click this extension toolbar button to edit the configuration, fill the url parameter with your wanted url.

Place the string: "????" to the variable part of the url. For example, with the url configured to "https://cn.bing.com/dict/search?q=????", after I selected a text: "vocabulary" in a page, this extension will open "https://cn.bing.com/dict/search?q=vocabulary" in this page automatically.

You can fully customized the appearance and position using CSS in configuration.

Note:

* Some website may restrict external connection using Content Security Policy (CSP). This would cause the extension displaying a blank page.

* Firefox extension only, for now.
