Most of the items on our context menu items start with verbs, so I think "web search" on the selection context menu should be changed to "search web". Now: Web Search for "selected" Dictionary (or Dictionary Lookup) My suggestion: Search Web for "selected" Search Dictionary (or Look Up in Dictionary)
Jesse, please provide some steps to reproduce, I have "Search Netscape Search..." on my context menu when I highlight some string on a page.
just select some text in this page then right click 1- for instance, <--- select "instance" 2 - right click results: last menu option is "Web Search for "instance""

Attached patch updates the search context menu wording (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
Now I understand, seems like my build was not up-to-date enough. Yes, the wording is horrible. I attached a small patch that fixes the problem. It also changes the accesskey from W to S, this should be safe, S does not appear to be used in the context sensitive context menu. blaker, marlon, mpt please review and give r=/sr= or suggestions.
Keywords: patch, review
Diego Biurrun: Dont change the accesskey from 'W' to 'S': Highlight some text, click on an image.. 'S' is used for '_S_et As Wallpaper'. (but IMO you could swap those to accesskeys; this sounds much more logical)
"Set as Wallpaper" won't confict with "Search Web for ..." once bug 135225 is fixed. Bug 135225 is "don't mix selection and non-selection context menus (accesskey dups)".
Blocks: 135841
I added the dtd where the accesskeys are defined to the URL field. See for yourself, "S" is defined in various places. I changed from "W" to "S" since this is not used in the respective context menu on Linux, but there is no "Set as Wallpaper" in my Linux context menu, so maybe I missed it because of that. But as Jesse said, this should not be a problem.
uid is being phased out.

Diego Biurrun, could please check that your patch is still valid and ask for reviews? you haven't set any review flags last time. Thanks, Prog.
Thanks for reminding me of this, it had definitely slipped through the cracks. Patch remade, it had bitrotted. Sorry, I have no access to a CVS tree right now, I hope it applies cleanly nevertheless.

Comment on attachment 140828 [details] [diff] [review] wording update - minus the bitrot Blake, could you either r= or sr= this and suggest someone for the other review? This patch is very trivial. I think it is a candidate for rs=.

This bug was filed against Seamonkey but I think Blake only fixed it in Firefox.
Reopening. This was indeed only checked in for Firefox.

I've gone ahead and changed all the necessary spots for Mozilla Suite to mirror the changes that have already been checked into Firefox. The previous patch didn't change the text for the help files, I've done that too.
Comment on attachment 149013 [details] [diff] [review] Patch for the rest of Mozilla, plus help files (including one for Firefox) Going ahead and setting for review. Blake, hoepfully, being a Firefox driver, you can also go ahead and merge in the one change that's included for the firefox side.

Comment on attachment 149013 [details] [diff] [review] Patch for the rest of Mozilla, plus help files (including one for Firefox) Submitting for review to mconner to hopefully get this into Firefox so everything is squared away.

Apologies, this has already been reviewed and approved by jag, but I didn't see how to request a second review without removing the first for this patch. My request from mconner is merely to get someone on the Firefox side specifically to approve this patch for that product. Very minor.

Whiteboard: checkin0.9
today being loosely defined, of course, done now.
