Module 20: Search Safari
How to search the contents of the current page for text or links
| When you are viewing a website in Safari, you can search for words and phrases on the page. You can also search for words that contained in a word or phrase. |  |
1. Press Command+F to bring up the in-page search box. Alternatively, you can go to the Edit menu > Find > Find… to bring up the search box.
2. Type in your search word or phrase and hit Enter. Safari will highlight all of the instances of the word on the page.
3. Click the left and right arrow buttons to scroll through the search results.
4. Important: If you want to broaden the search results, click the menu within the search box to switch between "Contains" and "Starts With."
So, for example, if your search string is "light", Safari by default will search for all words that begin with "light": lighthouse, lightbulb, and so on. Switch the option to "Contains" and Safari will also find words like spotlight and sunlight.
