Find In Page - Finally - ability to search for text inside Web pages on your mobile browser!
Find In Page is a bookmarklet that adds the missing page search feature to the Web browser on your mobile device. Page search is one of the most important productivity tools for doing research on the Web. For example, it significantly reduces the amount of time required to review search engine results - instead of scanning and reading each page for relevance, you can use Find In Page to look for relevant keywords, saving time and frustration. Ability to search for text in long Web pages and text files online is simply awesome.
***** THE VERY IMPORTANT, SCARY DISCLAIMER *****
Because Find In Page works as a browser bookmark, and because there is currently no way for an app to add bookmarks to your browser automatically, you will have to use the data and instructions contained in this app to create and edit the bookmark manually. If you are not comfortable performing the following tasks, THIS APP IS PROBABLY NOT FOR YOU, and you can save yourself a lot of frustration by simply moving on to another app:
1. Bookmarking a page in the browser on your device.
2. Editing an existing bookmark to change its Title and Address fields.
3. Pasting text from the Pasteboard on your device.
If, however, you are a power user of your browser and your device, please do read on!
***** END OF THE VERY IMPORTANT, SCARY DISCLAIMER *****
What makes this Find In Page bookmarklet different from similar, free bookmarklets floating around on the Web?
1. For one, it has an actual User Interface for moving forward and backward through search results, as well as providing information about your current query on demand (such as the search terms used, the number of results, and where you stand in navigating through these results). Making subsequent queries, as well as cleanly removing the toolbar and highlighted search results are also functions of the UI.
2. It does not break the content of the page as a side-effect of its search-and-highlight action, so multiple searches can be performed, one after another, without reloading the page.
3. It does not naively interpret your search terms as Regular Expressions, and it works only on the content of text nodes in the HTML document, so it is safe and perfectly valid to have both Regular Expressions and HTML keywords in your search terms.
4. It deliberately filters out search results that are contained in hidden, invisible elements on the page (these are more common than one might think, especially in Web 2.0 and designed-for-mobile Web pages).
5. It strikes the delicate balance between search speed and search correctness and relevance.
LIMITATIONS:
Find In Page does not have the ability to see text that is separated by different formatting. If, for example, you are looking for the words "my text here", and "my" on the page is in bold, then Find In Page will not see it - it will happily find both "my" and "text here" for you separately, but not together as a single search term.
USAGE:
After you have created the bookmark containing Find In Page bookmarklet code, it is recommended to move it up in your list of bookmarks, especially if this list is very long. When you want to do a search on any page, simply tap the bookmarks button on the browser bottom toolbar, and tap on the Find In Page bookmark. Immediately the Find In Page toolbar will be added to your current page and you will be prompted for text to find.
