Can't speak to mobile, but I think Rikaichan is no longer in active development and may no longer work with current browsers. It's been superseded by Yomichan which does the same thing.

On my iPhone, I just highlight the text then pick lookup which should provide multi lingual definitions.. and the all important reading.
