I like the Firefox Translations add on, but it would be great if there was a webpage similar to Google or Bing translate, where we can simply input text that needs translating, and it would translate it.

Alternatively, the add on could be expanded, so that when you click the add on icon in the browser it loads up a text box that you could add text you want translated, and it would translate it.

Firefox translations (Mozilla firefox) - translate text segment

Could the "Firefox translation" addon to translate just a text segmente (phrase, word, ...)?

In general, I usually use tools like translate.yandex.com (or Google); sometimes search engines help me searching "word in spanish" where "word" is the target.

Thank you, in advance.

Hi @Jon

Thanks for the update. Great news. Just to confirm, which part of my idea is in development, or are both parts currently being developed?

@Jeppie please use Bugzilla to report bugs - there should be a 'Translation' option in the Component field:
