hello,
does anybody know how to open a web search result in a new layer?

and is it possible to open bookmarks in a new layer when i click on them - for example - with the right mouse button?

thank you.
s.

Go to Edit -> Advanced Preferences (F2) -> Browsing section -> General tab;
Select Open: "Netscape Bookmarks" in combo box and check "In new layer" and "In background".

About web search;
If you use URL bar to web search; The same but select Open: Typed URL in combo.
If you use searchbar plugin read this thread.
This in FAQ also could help you.

Or you could reffered to something as this thread.

thanks for answer.

1. i didnt mean to open new bookmarks in a new layer, but if somebody know how to associate maybe an accelerator with this function. i mean to open bookmarks in a current layer, but it will be nice to open them in a new layer for example with the right mouse button.

2. for web search i use rebar menu plugin (menu with search engines associated with an accelerator). i meant just to click on the search engine from "tools - web search", write a search query in the popup dialog and see the result in a new layer.

thank you again for help.

i think with my web-search-result-into-new-layer problem maybe it will be possible if i change something or add a line into search.kmm makro. but this language seems really tough to understand for me. this search bar plugin mentioned above isnt a bad idea, but it seems uncomfortable when i use multiple search engines at a time. if somebody understand this makro langugage and knows where to make a change in this file, please, let me know.

thank you.

Ah! You like write some words to search in URL bar and search pressing Web Search button, and you like the results of web search in a new layer.
(Sorry i didn't understand you exactly)

In 'macros' subfolder open 'search.kmm' file with a plain text editor (as notepad) and search this code:

_Search_Typed{
$__query=$URLBAR;
$__query==$URL?$__query=prompt(_("Enter search query:"),sub("%s",$_Search_EngineName,_("Search (%s)"))):0;
$OpenURL=$__query==""?"":$_Search_EngineURL.urlencode($__query);
# prevent search queries from being added to the MRU
$__pref="kmeleon.MRU.behavior"; $__data=getpref(INT,$__pref); $__data==2?setpref(INT,$__pref,3):0; &OpenURL_Typed;
setpref(INT,$__pref,$__data);
}

Change to this code:

_Search_Typed{
$__query=$URLBAR;
$__query==$URL?$__query=prompt(_("Enter search query:"),sub("%s",$_Search_EngineName,_("Search (%s)"))):0;
$OpenURL=$__query==""?"":$_Search_EngineURL.urlencode($__query);
# prevent search queries from being added to the MRU
$__pref="kmeleon.MRU.behavior"; $__data=getpref(INT,$__pref); $__data==2?setpref(INT,$__pref,3):0; &OpenURL_InNew;
setpref(INT,$__pref,$__data);
}

Note changes in bold, if you like open search result in background layer change bold function to this: &OpenURL_InBg;

Will be implemented in km 1.5 (actually it already is in 1.5b1).

Edit > Advanced Preferences (hit F2) and set Typed URLs to open in a new layer.

desga2: yes, that change in search.kmm macro seems like what i meant. thank you! sorry for still not being satisfied with all your written solutions, but if k-meleon is so modifiable as posted, id guessed it could do what i exactly wished.

p.s.: that preference - typed url into new layer does what i meant, but it also opens all urls written into url bar into new layer which i didnt want.

but thanks everyone for trying to help me!
