i bought hanzibar for the chinese<->english translations and i find it to be an excellent addon. that being said, would it be possible to make a small enhancement?
when the cursor is over an english word, could the cantonese pronunciation also be shown? in 1.5d, only the mandarin pronunciation is shown. when the cursor is over a chinese word, the cantonese pronunciation is already shown, so hopefully this will be a minor change.

Hi,
First, I really like the tool.
I wish that the dictionary output was more configurable though. Using it for chinese, especially in tooltip mode, I would like to turn off traditional character display (especially when trad/simpl) the same to make it easier/faster to read.
Another wish: I also would like to turn off the last line (in both tooltip and red box) of information showing character code and M/C pronounciation (since I only care about M and that is already displayed).

Could you add a feature to allow what is copied when "Copy Hanzibar translation" is selected to be customized? In particular, I use that feature to copy to a word list to read in to another program, and that program expects one one format (character, tab, pinyin, tab, definition). Currently that feature pastes the entire dictionary entry, which requires manual edit. Not a big deal for each one, but when I copy 20 - 30 words, it does take some time.
Also, I realize the reason not to autoload the dictionary for every tab. However, I almost always keep hanzibar disabled (don't take it personally!), and only enable it when I'm reading Chinese. So for me, I would like an option to autoload the dictionary.
Thanks,
Jeff

Alt-text is a parameter in the html image tag that specifies what the browser should show if the image file itself is unavailable. It's usually either a description of the image or often, when the image only contains text, it will be the same text shown in the image. You can see it in Firefox if you right-click on an image and hit Properties. It might be a useful way to at least partially translate some images that have the same text they contain listed as the alt-text. Of course, OCR would be super-cool too... ;D Yes! I came to this forum today to make this very suggestion! I'm currently browsing a Chinese site which has a lot of text embedded in images, which is very annoying. Luckily, the images have alt text attached to them. It should be trivially easy to make Hanzibar able to read this text, as it is right there in the HTML of the page. P.S. I recently tried to convert to Opera, but I ended up coming back to Firefox because only Firefox has the excellent Hanzibar!
