drive55 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) On a previous machine that I gave to a friend, I had a "Copy and Go" option in the Right-click context menu in Internet Explorer 7, for non-hyperlinked plain text urls. I don't know how it got there? but it was super-quick & useful. Just reloaded another machine from scratch, & now I don't have it there. Anybody have any idea how/where to get it? I know it's a standard plug-in for Firefox/Mozilla - will that plug-in work at all on IE7 w/o corrupting it ? I also run Quero Toolbar & IE7 Pro in IE7 (also use 'Fox, Opera, & Chrome for various things - but I want this functionality for IE7) There are some AutoHotKey scripts that convert plain text to urls, but since they're dependent on a L- or R- mouse click-hold, they often conflict with other AHK & StrokeIt functions I already use. Any suggestions for other progs or scripts, Reg tweaks, etc. that can do this would be appreciated ! Thanks**** edit **** I changed the post title from "Copy and Go" to "Paste and Go" , because that's what the function is really called - I finally realized that it's built-in to Quero Internet Explorer toolbar, and shows itself in the R-click context menu when the address bar is R-clicked to paste a non-hyperlinked text url.

drive55 Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 The Bayden IEToys http://www.bayden.com/ietoys/ has the component "Linkify" that does the same thing - select the text url, R-click & choose "Linkify", then the non-hyperlinked url will open in a new tab. There's other time/effort saving features in that app too. But I still wanna know where "Copy and Go" for Internet Explorer came from, or is available from !!

Geej Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Any suggestions for other progs or scripts, Reg tweaks, etc. that can do this would be appreciated ! ThanksOpen Selected URL put 3 context menus in IE when u right-click on blank area of web page. uses .html with encoded java script to do the job. So don't think it will conflict any hotkeys u might have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drive55 Posted January 30, 2009 Author Share Posted January 30, 2009 Geej, thanks very much for this suggestion - looks like several nice little utilities they offer. I hope to be able to script these kinds of functions w/ AHK or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
