Do you know a bookmarking tool which supports bookmarks with parameters?
Example:
URL:
http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de/dings.cgi?lang=en&service=deen&opterrors=0&optpro=0&query=
Parameter-Input box will be displayed next to the bookmark and URL and parameter will be concatenated into URL2 which is directly called.
URL2:
http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de/dings.cgi?lang=en&service=deen&opterrors=0&optpro=0&query=innovative
So you directly see the resultlist of the query instead of first opening the page, typing the seach parameter and calling the resultlist.
Yes, these things exist, they are called "bookmarklets" and they work with JavaScript. Usually the website itself provides them, but if you know JS you can write them yourself. There are a lot of useful examples for bookmarklets on
thx for telling me about bookmarklets
