  • Jump to the next occurrence of found word on same page

    Is there a way to jump to the next occurrence of a found word on the same page with the current version of the search engine? With some webpages taking a while to scroll through, this would be a great help.

    There is code here http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/support/highlighting.html to hightlight and jump to the first match on page. But it doesn't allowing jumping backwords and forwards through the page.

      The jump to facility is great and works very well. I wonder, in a future version, if it would be possible to apply a simple keystroke to jump to the next occurrence of the searched term on the results page? Just a suggestion.

        The trouble with adding features like that in the Javascript is that it increases the chances of it conflicting with other Javascripts you may have on your web pages. As it is, we try to keep it as simple as possible, and still we have many people reporting conflicts with their Javascript menus etc. There is no way we can prevent potential conflict (since we can not know in advance what Javascripts are implemented on a site), but by adding features which intercept user keystrokes, it would definitely increase the chances (many websites intercept Ctrl-F for the "Find" feature, for example). For the above reasons, we have no plans to add such a feature as part of the Zoom script. You are however, free to modify it for your own perusal but custom modifications will not be supported.
