F3 like in all Windows software...
as an alternative you could click somewhere in the page and type a dot .
and then the search term i.e.:
.test
and it will highlight all strings containing the word "test".

Hello,
Yes, a "CTRL"+"F".

F3 just said that it couldn't find "milk" (my most recent search on a
different page.
Typing ".test" did indeed highlight all the "test" strings on the page,
in a way similar to typing "test" in the "Find in page" but I couldn't
find a way of advancing the one that was highlighted in green.
Thanks anyway!

Ctrl+F opens a new "Find" dialog. I'm looking for a way to move the
focus to the "Find in page" "button" that I have in my toolbar.

There used to be a preference which bound Ctrl+F to focusing the Fnd in
Page box. I'm just trying to figure why it doesn't work any more (even via
opera:config) - I hadn't noticed since I use .searching all the time.

Here are the search functions in the standard_keyboard.ini file:
f ctrl = Find
/ = Find Inline, 1
. = Find Inline, 1
/ shift = Find Inline, 2
comma = Find Inline, 2
g ctrl = Find next
You can modify them as you wish.

opera:config/#UserPrefs|UseIntegratedSearch
When checked, ctrl + f focuses the Find in Page searchbox, wherever it is
(mine is on my personal bar) - Didn't work for me the first time I tried
it - not sure why.
note that in menu6.ini there is a commented-out line as the last item in
the Browser Edit Menu, with the actions Enable inline find | Disable
inline find - you can reactivate this if you want a means to toggle the
two behaviours.

When you have found the first iteration of your search term, press F3 to
advance to the sucessive iterations of that term.

This will have to wait until I can afford a larger screen. I selected
UseIntegratedSearch and clicked on "Save". A tiny popup window of some
sort with a red border appeared briefly (about 0.25 seconds) and then a
Javascript window considerably taller than my maximum resolution
(1280x1024) can display. There are no controls in the visible area, and
all I can do is close it. It contains a list of settings that stops far
sort of UseIntegratedSearch. The UseIntegratedSearch reverts to its
unchecked state.
If I can figure out how to change this setting by editing a file, I'll
have another go.

opera:config#UserPrefs|UseIntegratedSearch

Sorted. Perfect! Thank you!
It even has the effect I wanted; an added bonus. :-) I'll have to find
another excuse for that larger screen I wanted now.

What do the 1 and 2 mean in these commands?
I have these keyboard shortcuts set as you describe. For me, however, /
triggers Find Inline as I expect, but / shift seems to do nothing.

1 = all text
2 = only links

FYI: This cannot be set in my 10 beta; I get a slew of error messages,
and the change gets ignored.

Oh, that's weird. Something goes very wrong there on opera:config in Opera 10!
