> I - Search results from words inside quotes are not highlighted, ie "web analytics"

This is mostly fixed now. I haven't done extensive testing but results look good so far. The behavior in 1.9.3 is to look for literal " in the search results, which obviously most engines don't interpret as part of the search term

> I - Only the first page of search results highlight the search term, subsequent pages don't.

This one might get messy but I'm trying a few things.

> I - When a search results page is opened the search words are not highlighted.

Do you mean in the search bar itself on the results page? No, the API I'm using doesn't look in text input fields from what I can tell. Doing so with highlighting colors would require some fancy overlays and a lot of time.

I'm working on a basic find bar. From your suggestions it looks like you want a straight-up replacement for findbar tweak. I can use that as a reference but the webextension API is limited and there are some things that simply can't be done.

> Do you have a webage for donations via paypal or something similar ?

I don't, but you can help development by giving feedback at the github site. I don't receive notifications when comments here are edited, making it difficult to keep a conversation going. I think I have a good idea what you're after though.

I took a quick look at some images of find-bar. Looks similar to the 'find' feature in android chrome - highlights text, provides a nav bar representing the document map with found words, etc. FF has an API available but to keep Chrome compatibility looks like I need SVG overlays and other workarounds. I'll look into it but don't expect anything too soon.

(edit) 12-6 #2

Found a library (mark.js) that does a good lightweight highlighting and integrates with CS pretty well. Already tested on page results with simple highlighting. I might get something set up sooner than I thought.

(edit) 12-6 #3

Basic functionality is in the repo. If you're familiar with sideloading for debugging you can test it out. Otherwise wait for the next release and it will be there.

Looks like FF has a find API that can highlight words in a webpage. Are you looking for something that essentially mimics ctrl-F ?

    Dear Author, I'm Japanese, so please excuse my poor English.

    If the version is v1.47.1 or later, Japanese character codes such as "shift_jis" and "euc_jp" cannot be used because they garble the text.
    There seems to be a problem with sending from a Unicode site to a JIS site. It seems that the text is sent as utf_8 without being converted.

    I rolled back to v1.46.26 and there are no problems.
    (The same situation occurs with Chrome.)

    PS: I don't have a Github account, so I reported this problem here.

    Definitely the Best Search-addon. Nearly perfect.
    Unfortunately the sidebar feature is not working (Firefox & Chromium)..

    I've used many, many different extensions in several different browsers over many years. (I'm an experienced web developer, starting when the web was first invented, and can code several different web languages -- in other words, I'm not a newbie.)

    ContextSearch web-ext has the most complicated, buggy preferences interface I've ever seen in a browser extension. I have it running in both Firefox and Chrome, and when it works it's great -- but trying to customize it, add search engines, etc. is a nightmare.

    Currently one of the engines in my ContextSearch list is "Google Maps". It works fine in Firefox, but doesn't work at all in Chrome, just leads to a blank page. So I tried exporting it from Firefox into Chrome. Forget it! The export/import features in the extension's customization interface appears to just export the URL for the icon, not for the search engine itself? And some of the gazillion preferences-interface elements for this extension, in both browsers, appear as just solid gray blocks -- regardless of what theme I use, or whether Dark Reader is on or off, or what other interface options I choose for ContextSearch itself. Of the options (including links) that I can see clearly, most of them don't do anything like what their name implies or what I'd expect them to do.

    I haven't given up on it because, for the engines I finally get working, it's very useful. But I spend more time wrestling with this interface than with all my other (many) installed extensions put together!

    (edit) That bug has been found and will be fixed in the next release

    The save bug is known and may have been addressed in a recent version. I know it's been a persistent annoyance.

    As for the transparency, you should be able to set that yourself using CS Options -> General -> User Styles. Use CSS selectors to apply opacity levels to the menu. If you need help, open an issue at the github site.

    Versions after May no longer work. I would like to downgrade to an earlier version but can't find it.

    You can find older versions here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/contextsearch-web-ext/versions/

    But depending on what when wrong, that may not fix your problems. If you could elaborate on the issue, either here or at the support site, I'd be happy to go over some troubleshooting with you. https://github.com/ssborbis/ContextSearch-web-ext
