How do I add a search field to "Find on this page?"

Hi,
I have a topic that contains 2 frames. The first frame (frame 1) is a topic that I want to add a search field to. The second frame (frame 2) displays external content (a directory listing of files). I'd like users to be able to enter all or part of a file name in a search field in frame 1 and have the matching filenames in frame 2 highlight.
I could tell users to use the "Find on this page" option in the IE toolbar but I'd prefer to put the same type of field directly in my topic.
Is this possible? If so, how?
Thanks so much,
Charlotte

There is a link to a Find in Page script in Item 2 at http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm#robohtml. I'm not sure it will work for your specific requirement but it is worth a try.

  • How can I eliminate the search field in the new tab page?

    I just started using the default FF new tab page, and would like to eliminate the search field just above the tiles.
    Is there a way to do this without using CSS?

    Hi, the Add-on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-tools/?src=search New Tab Tools] will do that. (It's fine in v36, but can't be certain about v37 though).

  • How can I add a "search" field for web pages content-not blogs or podcasts?

    This seems to be such a basic function, I can't believe I'm having so much trouble. I don't have a blog or a podcast on my new website that I'm in the process of designing. So how do I allow people who'll visit my site to search there for specified content? The only instructions I find are for the RSS in inspector for blogs or podcasts. All I want is for people to be able to search my site/web pages (that have no blogs or podcasts on them). This must be a common request... or am I crazy? How do I do that?
    Thanks for your help.

    I think I've answered my own question after a few hours of searching:

    Thanks for help.

    Open the Customize window and set which toolbar items to display.
    *"3-bar" Firefox menu button > Customize
    *if missing items are in the Customize palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    *if you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the Customize palette then click the Restore Defaults button to restore the default toolbar setup
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/customize-firefox-controls-buttons-and-toolbars
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • How can i add STORAGE LOCATION field which is not...............

    hi,
    sap gurus,
    good morning to all,
    how can i add STORAGE LOCATION field which is not in the standard tables namely
    KOMP, KOMK, and KOMG.
    how to include it in our FIELDS FROM FIELD CATALOGUE.
    if we include this field is there any impact on the standard tables.
    plz let me know this.
    bcz
    we are selling our products in two ways
    (1). one is straight from factory ie direct sales from factory
    if customer asks for excise invoice then we will sell thru factory and keeping freight in mind we will
    deliver him which ever is economical either rail or road.
    before coming to second case of selling the goods
    we will do STOCK TRANSPORT ORDER from plant to different storage locations.
    if we did STO thru road we have to sell the goods thru road only.
    if we did STO thru rail we have to sell the goods thru rail route only.
    (2). if the customer is not asking any excise invoice then we will send the goods thru depo/storage
    location which is not registered under excise.
    if the goods came by road then it will be delivered by road only.
    if the goods came by rail then it will be delivered by rail only.
    my logic here is
    basing on the
    storage location, transportation types, and distance i want to create condition record
    that captures exact frieght at the sales order level.
    confirm whether i am right or wrong.

    Hi,
    It is not recommended to add new fields to any SAP standard tables. It disturbs the whole SAP functionality.
    But if you have no choice expcept to change the standard tables to meet your requirement -  then you need an access key to modify the object, which is available from the market place.
    Nevertheless, the better option is to create a 'Z' table with the required fields and use that accordingly.
    Changing standard tables will have serious impact when you apply patches or do an upgrade on the existing functionality.
    REWARD POINTS IF HELPFUL

  • How Can I Set the Search Field in iTunes?

    In applescript...
    In another app - I have copied a song title to the clipboard...
    Q: Now - How Can I Set the Search Field in iTunes to the clipboard contents?
    Q: Also how can I also open the main library itunes window?

    Hi Rev Dave,
    Q: Now - How Can I Set the Search Field in iTunes to
    the clipboard contents?
    Unfortunately the only way I can think to achieve this involves the use of "UI Scripting". The other previous posters have given you the preferred method you should consider using. If you want to script iTunes so that you visually see the search take place in iTunes you'll need to use the method shown in the script I've posted below.
    Q: Also how can I also open the main library itunes
    window?
    Cyclosaurus has given you the answer to this part of your question already.
    Here is a script that (though ugly IMHO) should achieve what you are asking for:set theSearch to (the clipboard) as string
    tell application "iTunes"
    activate
    set allPlaylists to playlists
    repeat with aList in allPlaylists
    if name of aList is not "Library" then
    set view of front browser window to aList
    exit repeat
    end if
    end repeat
    set LibList to playlist "Library"
    set view of front browser window to LibList
    end tell
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "iTunes"
    if "iTunes" is not in name of windows or ¬
    focused of window "iTunes" is false then ¬
    keystroke "1" using command down
    keystroke tab
    keystroke theSearch
    end tell
    end tellIn order for the above script to work you need to have "Enable access for assistive devices" enabled in the "Universal Access" section of the "System Preferences" application.
    If you have any further questions about the above script feel free to ask.
    Hope this helps...

    Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
    iWork > Pages
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    comme il y a un dossier
    iWork > Numbers
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
    puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
    puis lancez la recherche.
    Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
    Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
    Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
    Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.

  • Just switched from safari on my imac. when using search menu safari gave me the option to "find on this page," which was an incredible help while doing research. Is there any way to have this feature using firefox?

    Just switched from safari on my imac. When using search menu in safari I had the option to "find on this page," which was an incredible help while doing research and looking for specific phrases/words. Is there any way to have this feature using firefox?

    I think Safari has the same keyboard shortcut as Firefox "command+F" on a Mac or "Ctrl+F" on Windows.
    Look in the lower left corner for the Find. There are more likely to be differences in Find Next and Find Previous in the keyboard shortcuts, but continuing at the Find bar at the bottom doesn't matter what browser you use. There is an "X" there to dismiss the Find bar. In Windows the "Esc" key will dismiss the bar if you are within the find text entry area.
    Keyboard shortcuts:
    * [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Keyboard%20shortcuts?s=keyboard&amp;r=0&amp;as=s Keyboard shortcuts | How to | Firefox Help], from Mozilla very limited number of shortcuts but will show correctly for your system
    * [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/keyboard.htm Firefox and other Browser Keyboard Shortcuts (Comparison Table)], more comprehensive but is oriented to Windows users with some guidelines for Mac and Linux users.
