What exactly do you mean with "no longer works as a dictionary"?

In mobipocket reader, a dictionary uses javascript to implement dictionary search. This might indeed not work.

My focus was to use the recompiled dictionary in the kindle app (as the formatting of my originial dictionary made it unsuitable for the popup dictionary window), which should work as the kindle app only uses the dicitionary index and doesn't support javascript (so I removed the javascript code before recompiling the dictionary).

Ciao,
