Change default 'find' behavior to right justify
When using Find (Ctrl-f) to search for text within a web page the current behavior is to left justify the page to the text it found. This is particularly annoying since I then have to scroll back to the left to see the beginning part of the line.
Chrome and IE use this method so I find this extra step (I do it often for a locally produced web page) very annoying. I want to switch from using Chrome but since I use this page so often it may cause me to have to revert back to Chrome.
Sorry, I was unable to find a web page to help explain the behavior.
Thanks.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page (There’s a lot of good stuff here), and look for something for the Find bar.
Per FredMcD, I tried the 'Find Bar Tweaks' plugin that was featured but it has the same behavior. In playing around more I found that the behavior is slightly different from what I originally wrote. What I was seeing was that if the browser has scrolled to the right to find something previously then subsequent entries that match the criteria move the focus more left but not all the way - only to the match that it found.
There are many add-ons. If you don't like one, try another. But disable or remove one before trying another.
