To whom it may concern, Whenever I search for things in the browser, in a document, or in a PDF, using the ctrl+f (FIND) shortcut, I'm never able to locate the highlighted block. It's very difficult to see and track down on the page, and frequently the page doesn't even scroll to the correct location so the highlighted block isn't there at all! This is a very frustrating situation, as you can imagine. It's doubtlessly even worse for people with accessibility concerns (color blindness, etc!). Please resolve this situation ASAP. I suggest using more eye catching colors and maybe making it blink. Or adding some arrows on screen that point to the highlighted block. Best, Male Shoegaze

did you mean command+f, op? it pops up a little highlight of the located result, making it obvious where it was found. your issue might be that your os is a pos.

Yes, I actually use an Apple Computer and use Command+F. I did not want to assume that the concerned would be Apple users so I translated my complaint for them.

There seems to be a new trend in web dev to gratuitously break ctrl f because loading a table of text is too slow or something bitbucket seems to have realised they broke it and added their own lovely prefix only search to the repositories page
