I know there are lots of very good online dictionaries, and I'm not trying to replace those. The focus of this is simplicity in interface, that is: No interface 👍

What I've done is to create a function so that you select the word/kanji you want to look up, and simply press a button, which opens a new window with the results. Please try it and tell me what you think.
(Unfortunately it only works with Internet Explorer at the moment)

PS. If you have a pop-up blocker installed, it might interfere with this, but I think that can be solved by simply holding down a button (with Google-bar its Ctrl) when you click the button to search the dictionary.

Nice, I've used wwwjdic all the time, but had not found that function yet. Thanks!
Yeah I don't use it myself - I don't have the Links toolbar displayed, it takes up too much space. (My single top line is
[Menus-with-help-hidden] [back] [stop] [refresh] [biiiiiiig address bar]
). I might make room for a few buttons if they didn't have to have the word 'Link' stealing valuable space behind them.[/stop]
