Word "Ottawa" appears in the text on page
http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock2a.html.
When I try CTRL+F on that page and type "ottawa" as a search pattern I get no
results. If I try CTRL+F on the same page and type "ottawa," I get search
result. "Match upper/lower case", "Wrap around" and "Search backwards" are
unchecked.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to page http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~mills/ntp/clock2a.html
2. Type CTRL+F
3. Enter: ottawa

Actual Results:  
Message: The text you entered was not found.

Expected Results:  
Find place in the text where word "Ottawa" appears.

you have likely clicked somewhere in the page, *below* the last occurance of the
word "Ottawa". The find-feature then starts the search from where you last
clicked. I've been fooled by that many times. "Wrap around" should be checked by
default, but isn't. (Bug 91520)
