Beef up the Find command in Firefox (IBM developerWorks)

[Posted August 14, 2008 by cook]

IBM developerWorks shows how to improve the Firefox Find command. "The Find command in Firefox locates the user-specified text in the body of a Web page. The command is an easy-to-use tool that works well enough for most users most of the time. Sometimes, however, a more powerful Find-like tool would make locating text easier. This article shows how to build a tool that isolates relevant text in Web pages faster by detecting the presence and absence of nearby words."
