Problem with "Find" dialog
Posted by: Zeiram

Hello

When I try to find a word on a web page and I check "Match whole word only", this option does not seem to change KM's find behaviour, ie. KM finds every instance of the search term even if it is in the middle of a word.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open any web page
2. Hit Ctrl-F to bring up the Find dialog
3. Check the option "Match whole word only"
4. Enter any sequence of chars that appear inside a word on the web page (eg., "obot" which appear inside the word "robots")
5. Click on Find Next until your find ends "inside" the word (ie., until youf find the "obot" part of the word "robots")

Normally, you should find " obot " or " obot." but *not* "robots" or "robot".

Configuration: KM 0.6 on Win2K.

Does anybody have the same problem?

Best wishes,

Zeiram

This is a problem in the current build of MFCEmbed too. We need to file a Bugzilla report for that if one does not already exist.

I didn't realize that Mozilla didn't have this feature. We'll need to file a new bug as this is something specific to embedding which already provides this feature.

Looks like this isn't going to be fixed. I anticipate that we'll remove that option from the Find dialog for version 0.7.

Can't K-Meleon's developers fix it?
