Hi,
I need to create a Search (Find) Dialog box like the one used in windows when pressing Ctrl-F. Basically what I need is a popup window that will allow me to search the current page in my web application, and highlight the text that is found. Similar to windows.find. I found a couple examples but they were written in Vb script, and I can only use javascript. Any ideas or suggestions appreciated.

Thanks
 
Why can't you use the browser's native search functionality?

We have IE without any traditional menu bar. We have our own custom menu bar with file/log off, goto, Tools, Help etc. I would like to add find to it. Windows.find would have been a perfect solution but its no longer usable. Thank you.
