Hey....I'm....slow.
I kind of like that IE bookmark thing, find first occurrence, show it,
search again takes you to the next occurrence, and search again... Also
the highlighting of the found text string. It's one thing to find the
info, I have to show it to the end user...in context.
The end users love the way it works...except when it barfs due to the
random "body object not found." (Reminds me of a previous marriage...)

So, instead of trying to search in the content, copy the content to a memvar

It may cause a bit of a performance hit as the HTML file being searched is
around 5MB, but I'll give that a try.
Actually I'm kinda surprised you weren't doing it that way all along...
Suck the HTML into a memvar, check for the existence of your search
term in the string, if it's in there, THEN do your processing. No
sense ratcheting through it if what you're looking for ain't even
there...
I used to work at a place that was all proud of this search utility
they wrote that would go through line by line of their SCX's, PJT's,
etc etc etc looking for a string... took something like 20 minutes...
I got bored one day and rewrote it so it just sucked each file in its'
entirety into a memvar, checked it, then went through line by line if
it was found... mine ran in about 15 seconds when there weren't any
hits, vs 20 otherwise...
