As noted in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=835896#c19, the text for the placeholder for the search box in the markup view should be changed, since it isn't searching the HTML.

Maybe: "Search with CSS Selectors"?

Sure, do you have a running Firefox build?  If not, then first follow the instructions here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/DevTools/Hacking.

So basically the code changes needed for this bug are:

* Change the hardcoded string in place from "Search HTML" in inspectorSearchHTML.label here: http://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/browser/locales/en-US/chrome/browser/devtools/inspector.dtd#21.
* Change the name from inspectorSearchHTML.label to inspectorSearchHTML.label2 (this allows localizers to see the change).
* Replace any references to the label entity to the label2 entity: http://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?q=inspectorSearchHTML.label&case=true&redirect=true.
* Test and make sure the string has been updated locally

Hi Brian,

Yeah, I have a running Firefox build. I'll update thread if I have any questions.

Great. But can someone explain how to search for (and find) Named Character Reference? Plain Text?
