Would it be a hard task to make a program similar to this one:
 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3349
?

While I'm nearly getting through the Reference Grammar, I still keep looking up gismus & lujvos in the lists when I read things provided by the community (eg. la nicte cadzu). By now I've memorized half of the gismus, from {z****} to {n****}, except their rafsis; I still need dictionaries. Since most of my Lojban readings happen on Firefox, I find it would be fantastically useful if the browser is added an extension specialized for direct Lojban popup translation (rather than manually tabbing windows and searching for the word out from the list). Also it might be a nice introductory device for those Firefox users who have never put their toes in Lojban.

I'm not a programmer, so I don't know how exactly programs of this kind are made or how dfficult production of them might be. At least they seem to be not unpopuplar (there are nearly 90 add-ons listed in the category "Language Support and Translation"). So, why not one nice Lojban popup dictionary for Firefox?

I am very late to this discussion, have skimmed it, yet am not sure the following is useful. Quite some time ago I installed the DICT Extension for Firefox and pointed it to the Lojban dict server.  Within Firefox I can right-click on a Lojban word, choose "Define '[word]'", and the jbovlaste definition pops up. < https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/302 >

Hope this helps. mu'o mi'e komfo,amonan
