Add-on summary

Analyze keywords

Multi Find allows you to smoothly search and highlight fragments, words or phrases within any webpage.

Multi Find is Unicode-friendly: it can handle non-English characters (Chinese, Japanese etc.) and special symbols. You can also turn on and off case or diacritic sensitiveness. It works on iframes and dynamically loaded content (regular webpage but also blogs, forums and even video subtitles).

What you see in the input box is what you get in the webpage, as the input box is formatted exactly like the result of the highlighting. An addition, the list of words can be manipulated through a toolbar.

Other notable features of Multi Find:

  • Four ways to fill the input box: by directly typing into it, by copying and pasting, by loading a text file or by selecting a word on the webpage and using the contextual menu (right-click).
  • Persistant list of words across different tabs, browser windows, and future sessions (local storage only, nothing is in the cloud)
  • Number of occurrences for each searched word and the total count
  • Navigation buttons to scroll through the occurrences of highlighted words
  • Scrollbar marks to easily locate the highlighted words within the page
  • Full customization of the interface (including dark theme) through persistent settings.

Work well and easy multi search separation

This is a great tool! I use all the time. I like that it can has a "find" indicator even if you don't pull the dialog. It would be nice to have a search across all open tabs, super helpful.

很好用,经过我的推荐,公司整个部门都在用,很大的提升我们的工作效率。 有一点不足,或是说我没搞懂怎么使用的地方。 在特定的网页中,文本框中的内容无法查找。这种情况只出现在那一个网页。不过这个网页我不太方便透露,因为是我们公司自建系统。 如果在那个网页中也能够查找单词,那还能进一步提升工作效率70%不止
