Add-on summary

The majority of the Search Engines can be queried with specific URLs containing the search term of interest. Depending on the kind of Search Engines they have different rules for the composition of such URLs. With Query Bench you can define the URLs according the Engines rules and store them in your Browser for later use. Once you have defined a Query URL, it is very easy to use it. Having the Add-on switched on (by a Toolbar Button), it will mark the words everywhere you are hovering with the mouse. Then a Dialog Box appears with Buttons according your once defined Query Parameters. A single click on the Query Button of your choice will feed the Search Engine with the marked word. The Query Result can be displayed within the same Browser Window or you can decide it to be display in a dedicated Browser Window. Knowing how simple it can be, querying single words you will be glad to see that querying multiple words (e.g. sentences or more) is not a big deal either. Simply select the text you want to use as a Query Term and the same Dialog Box will appear, where again you can choose your Search Parameters with a single click. Query Bench will help you to save your valuable time and give you the pleasure to use simple and sophisticated Query Terms the same convenient way.

User reviews

I was a Fastest Search user and I switched to this extension. The extension works very fast and I can again search fast. The settingsmenu is very neat and clear. Search balloon/pop-up is very bulky with a lot of option I don't use and with no option to hide them. The search balloon also doesn't disappear automatically if you don't interact with it. It does what I want it to do. Thank you!
