There were a few annoyances with Safari that I never really liked such as the inability to search for text within the page. In verifying whether this is still an issue, I managed to locate the "Find on Page" option hidden in the "Send to" menu, clearly something I never expected. Safari also used to hide the contents of the page as you edited the URL bar, something which is now fixed and I notice you can use that to find text in the current page as well. And now that I look into Firefox further, I don't see how I can search for text within the page here either and Firefox hides the page contents when you edit the URL.
Looks like I'll be giving Safari another try.
- sirn 11y ago> I never really liked such as the inability to search for text within the page You can actually find in page by typing a keyword in the address bar. There will be an "On this page" section at the bottom of the suggestion list, which you can tap in and jump through all matches. If I remembered correctly, this feature has been available since iOS 5 or so (which were a little bit clearer back then, since search box was separate from the address box).
- arm 11y agoYep. It’s a feature that’s already been around for quite a while. Safari on my iPod touch (3rd generation) running iOS 5.1.1 has it.
