AndroidDeveloperLB Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 (edited) When visiting on ebay and other websites, they usually show the currency in dollars or even on other types of currency. Each time I'm curious about a product, I have to use Google's website to convert to my country's currency (which is Shekels). For example, I type "100 dollars to shekels" , and get this: https://www.google.com/search?q=100%20dollars%20to%20shekels I'd like to have a tool, built in, for converting the selected text to the currency of my choice, or even do it automatically. You could even add it inside the translator tool, as this is a special kind of translating (more like: translating is a type of conversion, between languages) ... This script might be useful: https://github.com/salty-horse/gm-scripts/blob/master/amazonLocalCurrency.user.js Edited June 26, 2015 by AndroidDeveloperLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndroidDeveloperLB Posted June 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Use this website http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/. Again, I don't want to visit a website, which I already do, for conversion of currencies. I would like to do it as fast as possible, without the hassle to go to a website and type the numbers.

AndroidDeveloperLB Posted June 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 it looks like an extension request, therefore I move it to extension section OK, but it could also be nice to have it built in, as it's like the translation tool (both convert things).

-ody- Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 I think OK, but it could also be nice to have it built in, as it's like the translation tool (both convert things). I would think it's not a priority to add this as a built-in feature. But an extension would be convenient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But an extension would be convenient ok, thank you for considering it. BTW, what has happened with maxthon ? I remember times of a lot of changes, and now I can barely anything new. Even for the behind-the-hood, I don't see it shine on HTML5 support as it used to be... Are there any news about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
