Does Firefox 46.0 have a new kind of search or find (ctrl-f) user interface? It comes with a drop-down menu listing several results with contexts. I also see it in Chromium 50.0.2661.94 (64-bit) but not in QupZilla 1.6.6 (all on openSuse Linux 13.2 in evergreen mode). But it's not everywhere, not even everywhere within a given website. Where this new UI is present, the traditional UI is absent. Scripts are present, but I don't know how to read scripts, so I can't tell if they're relevant. Is the Web page author using a Firefox/Chromium feature? What is this feature? These are relevant URLs:

Solução escolhida

That first page is intercepting Ctrl+f and the / key to display its own search box.

To bypass that, you can use either:

  • menu button > Find
  • A Find Again shortcut -- but this may make an error noise for non-matching text -- either:
    • Ctrl+g
    • F3 function key

I'm not sure if there is a "surgical" way to prevent pages from intercepting these particular keys, or whether it requires a blunt instrument like a script blocker.

Note that there is also a Find button in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list that you can move to a toolbar.
