Interactive translation tool

摘要

A translation window is opened in conjunction with a primary window, such as a Web page window containing Web pages hosted on the Internet. The translation window and primary window are automatically adjusted in size and position so that they fit on one user-viewable screen without overlapping. The translation window is linked to a translation dictionary database accessible through the Internet which provides accurate and comprehensive definitions of the words that are identified to be translated.
