Also, the 'find' function in Chrome does not search text boxes. On a website that I work on, page info and content is uploaded by the back- end interface via text boxes. Needless to say, the text boxes are relatively small and using the 'find' function in Firefox will search the data within these text fields so I don't have to scroll and read every line - Firefox jumps right to what I'm looking for *within* the text boxes.
Chrome really needs to step up its search/find ability. I'm finding it less and less workable; speediness does not trump usability, for me.
