Are you sure you're doing a right click? The #D# abbreviation works only if the
topmost entry of the menu popup is the domain name.

You are right of course, the IP is showing a opposed to the domain name we 
require 
for whois lookups.

Not quite the functionality I need so switched to DT Whois ...

Well you have to _left_ click on the ip and then select your entry. I'll also 
patch
showip to always pass the domain name to #D# regardless of left or right click.

Regards.

Hi 

Thanks for your kind attention to this issue. You are absolutely correct with 
regard 
to the _left_click_

The name passed is however the full host name (www.mydomain.com) as opposed to 
the 
domain name portion (mydomain.com) which is required for whois requests.

Regards

I'll just change it to always include the #D# tag in the next version.
