Hi everybody,

Where are the js Guru's?
Do you have any suggestions how to create the Search-Text window (CTRL-F) with JavaScript. It must only works in IE.


Please help :confused:

To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to simulate a Ctrl+F or any other way to invoke the built-in "find" box. Not even the execCommand() method in IE supports this.

After looking around a bit more, someone on another forum had the same question and got some interesting things cooked up for him...
