Safari Search While Typing plugin?

Hey all,

Not sure where to put this exactly, but does anyone know of a Safari plugin that activates the Find On Page (cmd+f) feature upon typing text (like the Firefox option)?

I don't know if this is close enough to what your looking for to help you or not. I use a java bookmarklet to Highlight specified search terms on web pages. Here is the java script. Just create a dummy bookmark in your bookmark bar, right click it, and replace the URL with the java in the address section. Name it as you wish.

javascriptfunction(){var%20count=0,%20text,%20dv;text=prompt(%22Search%20phrase:%22,%20%22%22);if(text==null%20||%20text.length==0)return;dv=document.defaultView;function%20searchWithinNode(node,%20te,%20len){var%20pos,%20skip,%20spannode,%20middlebit,%20endbit,%20middleclone;skip=0;if(%20node.nodeType==3%20){pos=node.data.toUpperCase().indexOf(te);if(pos%3E=0){spannode=document.createElement(%22SPAN%22);spannode.style.backgroundColor=%22yellow%22;middlebit=node.splitText(pos);endbit=middlebit.splitText(len);middleclone=middlebit.cloneNode(true);spannode.appendChild(middleclone);middlebit.parentNode.replaceChild(spannode,middlebit);++count;skip=1;}}else%20if(%20node.nodeType==1&&%20node.childNodes%20&&%20node.tagName.toUpperCase()!=%22SCRIPT%22%20&&%20node.tagName.toUpperCase!=%22STYLE%22){for%20(var%20child=0;%20child%20%3C%20node.childNodes.length;%20++child){child=child+searchWithinNode(node.childNodes[child],%20te,%20len);}}return%20skip;}window.status=%22Searching%20for%20'%22+text+%22'...%22;searchWithinNode(document.body,%20text.toUpperCase(),%20text.length);window.status=%22Found%20%22+count+%22%20occurrence%22+(count==1?%22%22:%22s%22)+%22%20of%20'%22+text+%22'.%22;})();

Oops! Replace the frowning face with the characters "" without the quotes.

Darn! It did it again. The characters are :&( without the & between them.

Just wondering, why do you need to have that functionality? I'm trying to think of a practical use to have such a plug-in, but I fail to see one. Could you describe the usefulness the plug-in would serve?

Why wouldn't you use the find feature? It does work a little different, but I think it's the same keys to activate it on Safari as it is in Firefox...


Oops Sorry, guess I didn't read your question properly.
