i've found type ahead find quite useful in mozilla. it'd be good to have it in
chimera, too. (phoenix has it, but then again, it's trunk-based, not branch-based.)
we'll get this for free when we move to mozilla 1.2.
true...but was wondering if we ought to cherry-pick this one sooner?

I'd love this.
need to remember to turn this component on to build once we land on the trunk.

hm, find as you type doesn't seem to be working with today's (2003.05.05.04) build.

a. start typing in a page (should automatically start fayt in link's mode)
--nothing happens.

b. hit apostrophe key ('), then start typing in a page (should manually start
fayt in link's mode) --nothing happens.

c. hit forward slash key (/), start typing in a page (should manually start fayt
in text mode) --nothing happens.

any ideas?

re-solving; bryner just checked in a file he forgot.

works great in 2003.05.06.04. yay!

note: the current default behavior is that find as you type automatically finds
linked textual content.

you can still use the manual shortcuts of / (forward slash) to find all text and
' (apostrophe) to find linked text.

Shoud this be a new bug?

In Mozilla you can use find-as-you-type then cmd-g to find again

This isn't happening in Camino.
derek, good catch --yes, pls file a separate bug on cmd+G to find again to work
with find as you type in camino.
