Dictionary lookup problems

When I input a new dictionary calibre correctly calls the website but is not able to input the specific word I have highlighted. For example using:

http://dictionary.com/ {word}

I will get the dictionary website but then have to manually input the word.

What am I doing wrong??

@Pistol Pete - if you want this Dictionary.com try

Code:
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/{word}
Otherwise, lookup a word manually at the required dictionary site and use the URL shown as a template
