Options

There are several ways to use this dictionary. The most used way is by word input (you must know in what language word is) but you can also use browser's search box (see tables below) and bookmarklets (or favelets).
There are two Japanese-English dictionaries and one contains Kanji and Kana (Kana in English pair due to improved searching). For the same reason Chinese dictionary consists of traditional and simplified Chinese term on one side and pinyin and English term on the other.
There is also a WAP version of the dictionary intended to be used on mobile phones (URL: http://www.eudict.com/wap/index.wml). This version differs from web version because it searches only for exact word, not phrases and similar terms. Translation from one to many languages is not supported on WAP pages.

Integration in browser

Maybe the best way to enable dictionary search is its integration in search field of the browser. To add EUdict beside Google, Yahoo!, Amazon and other search engines in Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer 7, click on link below with appropriate language pair and confirm your decision. Now you are ready to use it: from the select list (on the right side of Navigation Toolbar) select EUdict, input a word and press Enter.

Browser's search plugins (Firefox and IE 7)
English>Croatian English>Japanese English>Spanish English>German English>Swedish English>Indonesian English>French English>Italian English>Latin English>Norwegian English>Finnish English>All	Croatian>English Croatian>French Croatian>Spanish Croatian>Slovenian Croatian>Czech Croatian>German Croatian>Dutch Croatian>Italian Croatian>Latin Croatian>All	German>English German>Spanish German>Italian German>Croatian German>All	Japanese(Kanji)>English Japanese>English Chinese>English French>English Spanish>English French>Croatian Spanish>Croatian Italian>English Czech>Croatian Slovenian>Croatian Dutch>Croatian Italian>Croatian Latin>Croatian Latin>English

In Opera things are little more complicated. To add a search, select the desired language pair from the dropdown found at the top of this page (e.g. "ec) English=>Croatian"), then in the search text field next to the dropdown, right-click (Ctrl-click on Mac) and select "Create search" from the menu. Enter a name for your search (e.g. "English=>Croatian [EUdict.com]"), and a keyword (e.g. "engcro"), then click OK. After integration, Opera offers more ways of search: you can input a word in the toolbar's search field, or by using just the the mouse: double-click a word and use the menu option "Search with", or by using just the keyboard: type "engcro search words" in the address bar.

Bookmarklets

To enable word translation from any page, use bookmarklets.
Bookmarklet is small JavaScript code stored as a bookmark in you browser.

How to create a bookmarklet

If you use Internet Explorer drag any of the following links (choose among desired language pairs) in Favorites. If Favorites are not visible on the left side of your browser, go to View->Explorer Bar->Favorites. Users of Mozilla Firefox need to drag a link on Bookmarks Toolbar (View->Toolbars->Bookmarks Toolbars) and Opera users on Personal Bar (View->Toolbars->Personal bar).

How to use bookmarklets

Double click on word to select it. Then, with one click on button (Firefox, Opera) or link (IE) with language pair, in the same window you get translation. If you forgot to select a word, text input field will appear. See a screenshot of bookmarklets in Firefox.

Tips and tricks

If you don't have one of the letters on your keyboard, simply pick it from the drop-down list. For this option to work, (and for bookmarklets too) JavaScript must be enabled in your browser. For quick access to language pairs list press Shift + Esc. For quick access to text input field press Alt + I (in Internet Explorer and Firefox 1.x), Alt + Shift + I (in Firefox 2) and Shift + Esc + I (in Opera). Language pair begins with first letters of desired languages and you can select it by pressing that letters on the keyboard. If you fail to add bookmarklet in Mozilla Firefox according to instructions above, there is another way. Right click on a link and choose "Bookmark this link...". Now you can drag this link from Bookmarks to Bookmarks Toolbar.
About English=>All, Croatian=>All and German=>All translation: this kind of search is fast but cannot find words shorter than 4 letters and some specific words. If nothing is found, recheck with individual language pair. Also, in this mode (and if no word is submitted), alphabetical list will choose random word from English-Croatian dictionary.
