Details

When the find dialog comes up (either through an initial display or through a
refocus from the browser window using Ctrl+F etc.) if there is text in the
textfield, that text should be fully selected.

This allows a user to do repeated finds where he/she just starts typing and
doesn't have to worry about manually deleting the text that's already there first.

I believe the select() method can be used for this... e.g.,

myTExtField.select()
