Hi,
I received an interesting question recently: if you have a big list, without any sections, and you search for a term that appears more than once, the search results show only the first appearance of the keyword in the page. Is there any way to show all the places where that word appears and to be able to redirect the user to that precise location (let's say "precise location" means "the last anchor before the keyword appears")?
Is it solved anywhere on the web? Do we have to add extra features to normal web services? Is it worth to waste resources to prevent users of using their Ctrl F? Does it help them if the last anchor is two screens above the match? Will the results list be more useable with those long texts for a lot of matches?
