If you google a word or an 'exact phrase' in google and it gives you a website that is a very long piece of text, how can you find your word or phrase without reading through reams and reams of irrelevant material? :confused: Google doesn't highlight the word or anything so it makes it quite time consuming to find what you want.
thanks in advance:grin:
Once you get to the page google has sent you to do the following:
Go to the "Edit" menu and click "Find" (or press Ctrl + F) then type in the word you are looking for and click "Find Next"
cheers, you're a star!:grin:
This works in both Internet Explorer and Firefox, but I think the latter's "Find" facility is better because it opens a toolbar at the bottom of your browser window instead of opening a new window, and it does incremental searches whilst highlighting the first occurrence of your search string.Quote:

My desktop XP machine at work has vanilla IE6, and I don't have administrator privilege on it (our fix-it pixies are neurotic about security), so I almost never use the thing. [mad]
Hi guys...... I'm a newb, so I thought I'd make my maiden post on a useful subject.
I read the above methods on finding keywords. Noted that Rhegheadmentioned keyword highlighting.
Google gives you the keywords highlighted in different colours if you go for the 'cached' link.
Not only a newb, but a googlehead........:DQuote:
