I think this works better,

javascript:function trim(str) {str = this != window? this : str;return
str.replace(/^\s+/g, '').replace(/\s+$/g,
'');}Q=document.selection.createRange().text;if(!Q){void(Q=prompt('No text
selected on page.
Keywords...?',''))};if(Q)location.href='http://www.io.com/cgi-bin/dict?'+esc
ape(trim(Q))

Just adds a fuction trim(). This is helpful is you are in the habit
of double clicking a word to select it. For example when you use
MSIE, double clicking selects the space after the word.
This would fail in some servers like www.io.com. So
the selected word needs to be trimmed.

I guess I sure do have to post an obascii this time.

trimmer:

  (#\     /#)
   \#\   /#/
      \v/
      /^\
     // \\
    //   \\
   (/     \) [:dg:]
