This Firefox add-on seamlessly incorporates regular expression into your advanced Find Toolbar for faster and more efficient searches.
If you're looking for a powerful Find Toolbar that integrates Regular Expressions, then the Advanced Find Toolbar is for you. This innovative tool allows you to specify search criteria using Regular Expressions, making it easy to find complex patterns of text on a webpage.
One useful example of this functionality is searching for words or phrases that start with "fi" and end with "fox." With the Advanced Find Toolbar, you can input "fi..fox" or "fi.{2}fox," and it will highlight occurrences of "firefox," "findfox," or "filefox" if they appear on the page.
Another example is searching for multiple words that have variations in spelling. For instance, if you want to find "gray" and "grey" or "center" and "centre" on the same page, you can use the Regular Expression "gr[ae]y" and "cent(re|er)" to search for them simultaneously.
It's worth noting that the Advanced Find Toolbar recommends avoiding the use of "*" in your Regular Expressions.
In addition to its powerful search capabilities, the Findfox extension allows you to customize your Find Toolbar to suit your preferences.
Compatibility-wise, Findfox is cross-platform, and it works seamlessly on Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux. Overall, the Advanced Find Toolbar with Regular Expression integration is an efficient and convenient tool for anyone looking to find and highlight specific text patterns on web pages.
