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.

My 2 year old search for the BEST Multiple Search & Highlight Extension ended with this Extension. The Best part is that the search words work across all Tabs and do not have to be typed again and again for each tab. I've tried not less than 25 similar Extensions and none gave me what this Extension does. I would recommend it to every computer user. Thanks Developer Friend; I owe you this recognition for the awesome job that you have done. Ramesh Bawri, Shillong (India)

功能还不错,但是我使用百度输入法,根本无法使用,输入中文时会把文字对应的五笔码也一起输入了,真的很无语。比方我要打好,五笔码是vb,然后搜索框就会出现"vb好" 。。。
