Description Annie 2009-05-01 20:15:51 UTC When I open a page for editing and press Ctrl-F to find a word I want to correct, Chrome finds nothing or finds only words that are outside the edit area. It should find the words in the article text when it's opened for editing. Doesn't occur on IE 6, 7 and 8. Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2009-05-01 20:28:48 UTC Per Chrome support forum notes this is said to be fixed in Chrome 2 betas: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=1c2a5a10e43fe7ae&hl=en If you want to try it, you can install the beta: http://www.google.com/landing/chrome/beta/ Comment 2 Brion Vibber 2009-05-01 20:33:24 UTC I can confirm issue is present in Chrome 1.x release, and fixed in Chrome 2.x beta. I'm resolving this as FIXED upstream;
