As per the help file - in order to search a particluar frame

" Searching Within a Page - To find text within the page you are currently
viewing in Firefox:
   1. Select Edit > Find in This Page. If the current page contains frames, you
may need to click within a frame before you begin your search. A new toolbar
should appear near the bottom of your browser."

key word, other frames are checked first. This can be very annoying.
