Build ID: 20130104151925

Steps to reproduce:

Open XML-like file (XML or XSL), then tries to search for a word


Actual results:

Search engine (SE) doesn't open imploded tags, and doesn't search inside of them. Also, doesn't find all items. "Prev" button doesn't work. "Highlugh all" doesn't work. After reload it doesn't find even those words which were found before, unless clear search input and re-enter search phrase.
P.S. When external tools are used (hence firebug) when focus on tool window then xml document turn into plain text.


Expected results:

When I try to find word or a part of word in XML document SE should find them all, unless otherwise specified. It also should find previous, and next, and all words together.
Please add a link to a testcase (an XML file).

There are older reports of find not working in some way with some XML files.
