    Klipper can do a search for a highlighted phone no. in telephone books. You can highlight a phone no. in a arbitrary app e.g. on a web site.

    Select search action

    How to do that?

    Klipper offers "actions" for it.

    As precondition Klipper needs to be active and must be visible as a tray icon in the panel.

    Call up settings dialog and a action:

    Regular expression for action:

    ^[\s]*[0+][\d]{2,2}[-/\d\s]{4,16}[\s]*
    


    Now you need to add two commands for added action:

    Command 1 (all on one line):

    kfmclient openURL "http://www.dastelefonbuch.de/?pid=OpenSearch&cmd=search&kw=%s&le=de"
    

    Description for command 1: Phonebook seach Konqueror

    Command 2 (all on one line):

    ps x|grep -q '[f]irefox' && firefox -remote openURL\("http://www.dastelefonbuch.de/?pid=OpenSearch&cmd=search&kw=%s&le=de", new-window\) || firefox "http://www.dastelefonbuch.de/?pid=OpenSearch&cmd=search&kw=%s&le=de"
    

    Description for command 2: Phonebook seach Firefox

    After that it should look like this:

    Klipper actions

    After highlighting a phone no. on a web site a small window appears und you will be prompted to select an action. See screenshot at beginning of page.
