Q:

How to customise Google chrome to add search options on a right click?

As short cuts, I have added various search engine entries in my browser to get to a page having a patterned URL easily.
But this still does not solve the problem completely. While browsing, if I see some text that corresponds to one of the pages, I need to copy the text, open a new tab and then use my search entry to go to that page.
A couple of steps can be saved if I can directly right click and go to the search engine.
How can I do that? Do I need to create an extension for this or something simpler can help?

Current:

copy text
open new tab
search engine keyword followed by tab
paste text
press return

Desired:

select text
right click and select search

A:

You can add context menu items via Chrome extensions - see the doc for more details.
However, there's no current way to remove core-Chrome context menu items; only ones created by your own extension. And from researching before, I also think there's no way to get a user's search engines - only hardcode the ones you want.

A:

Install the Context Menu Search Add on in Google Chrome

I am using Chrome 11.0.696.71  as my browser , and I have not installed any addons. I have set Google as the default search engine.
However when searching,  I select the text, right click , and in the context menu I have have the search option, please see screenshot.

Is this what you are looking for?
