Since I can't install Google toolbar on the newer versions of Firefox, is there any way to do a search for words on web page that will highlight the results?

hello shiningbigseawater, CTRL + F should do the trick

How to search the contents of the current page for text or links

edit: or see https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/googlebar-lite/

Google Toolbar for Firefox has been discontinued as of July 2011. You can use add-ons for checking page rank using Firefox

if you sort out this please make a post. thanks

cbaba20, it is the other way as it was Google that stopped supporting Firefox with their toolbar with Firefox 4.0 being the last. It was stated in the first two links of the sumo article you linked to. Google announced this a month after the Firefox 5.0 release.
