i want to use the ctrl + f function on a webpage, but do it remotely from another page?

Question

This way I'll be able to display the results of another webpage while not directly go there, is that possible

Again I want add the ctrl + f function into my page itself like a search engine so it will be able to grab stuff from another page/

Answer 1

Depends what you're writing the website in. If it's just HTML... fat chance. Isn't going to happen. If it's ASP.NET or JavaServlets then just open that page like a normal text file and use string functions (indexOf() for example). If that last sentence confused you, then you aren't using a web language that will let you do this. Email me or Message me if you have any more questions on this.

Answer 2

Exactly as said above, I'm independent web site developer, fat chance on pure HTML, but HTML is surely involved, iframe maybe the simplest method that you can do, that way you leave the searching to whoever that can do it but interfacing is entirely still up to you.
