How to search as you type on Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer Whenever I try CTRL + F to search text on Internet Explorer it makes me wonder every time. Unlike one of the most popular browsers Mozilla Firefox and Opera which have so convenient way to search a string, it makes user quite frustrated to search on Internet Explorer which is still using the primitive search dialog to search the text. Sven Groot has come up with a neat add-on which provides the same functionality to Internet Explorer.

After pressing CTRL + F now you’ll get a small toolbar where you can start typing directly. And like Mozilla Firefox this can also Highlight the text while you enter the text.

TIP: For those of you wondering how to get this functionality in Opera, just press “.” whenever you want to search and start typing.
