That my friend, is fucking skill!!11!
Just tried it in Windose and Firefox and it brings up the search box in both progs. In Firefox, it highlights the words entered, thus making browsing long texts a piece of piss!
Thanks!

Couple of more useful ones:
Press the ? key on the page inside firefox for quick search, it also highlights the words for you. You can also highlight a word manually, and then press CTRL+F and it will automatically copy it into the search box and autosearch for that word on the page.
