"Find" tool highlighter location

[Guest]

Hi

When using the "find" comand in IE6, I find it always locates on the bottom
line of any data, when scrolling through the document, which means I have to
scroll to the next line to see if there is any more information.
Is there any way this Find highlighter can be made to highlight in the
centre of the window?

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

"Find" starts to look at the point where the cursor is. It might help to
click at the beginning of the document.

BTW, I myself like very much the highlight feature of the Google toolbar.
It highlights all the occurrences of the searched word.

Kind regards

Hello Wally,

An alternative to the Google Toolbar is the Quero Toolbar which
automatically highlights the keywords you are searching for. It has a "Find
As You Type" feature as well that is activated by typing slash '/'. Quero
always starts to search from the beginning of the page and searches
frame-based Web pages too.

No but if you think there is more context below the found string
what you can do is reverse the direction of the find.
Then the found string will be in the line at the top of the window instead.
