Search within a page in Safari with iOS4.2

You can now easily search words within web page by using the same search field in mobile Safari. Originally, the search field only shows the search suggestions from search engine (e.g. Google). Now the search is revamped to include both search suggestions from search engine and the matched text on the current web page.

When you want to search text within a web page, simply tap the search field in mobile Safari and key in the text (say, interview). As you can type the text, Safari shows the search suggestions. At the same time, it also tells you if there is any matched text on the web page (say, 2 matches in this example). Scroll through the search suggestions to the very end and you should see an option to find your keywords (say, Find “interview” in the example).

Once you tap the Find option, mobile Safari will highlight the search words within the web page. If there are more than one match, you can just click “Next” to navigate to the next match. Simple as that, this is a feature that we were waiting for for mobile safari and we are glad it's here. And we love the way it's been implemented so elegantly.  Remember, you need to be updated to 4.2 for this to work. If you have any questions or comments, let us know.
