Word Seach Not Working

Postby markb on Fri Aug 10, 2007 12:54 pm

When I use the Edit, Find feature and type in a word and click Find Next nothing happens. This occurs even when searching for words that I know are in the page that I am searching.

Can you let me know what type of document you are working on (web page, table, etc.)? Two potential things I can think of off the top of my head:

1. In order to Find Next, you need to have your cursor above the thing you are trying to find. So, if you happen to have your cursor at the bottom of a web page or a table, you won't be able to "Find Next".

2. If you are in a table and have a column or multiple columns highlighted, the Find only looks for things in those columns. So, if you're working on a table and have say Field1 highlighted, but are searching for something in Field2, nothing will happen.

If this doesn't solve the issue, can you provide a few more details about what the page is an example of a word you're searching for? Also, what OS are you on?

Thanks!

It seems to be one particular site, I am looking at an SEC filing that is html format. I just tried a couple of other sites and the word search works fine. I'll send you the url I'm working with separately.

That'd be great. If you don't want to show the URL in the forums, just shoot us an email at support@kirix.com. Thanks!

UPDATE: Strata is having problems using Find on websites that use Frames. We'll get that on the bug list.
