find (control + F) can't/won't work on certain symbols on a specific page.
on a website my college is using for part of its curriculum, I tried to use the ctrl + F "find in page" feature to find the "caret" character ("^") in my textbook, but when I hit the button to find the next match, it doesn't find anything but it also doesn't change to say "Phrase not found" like it did on this page before I started typing this post. I'm not sure what's wrong, but I think I might've just stumbled upon a bug similar several previous bugs like [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1299464|this] and [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1320495|this] by the way, there also seems to be a bug with the "insert link" button on this forum. I selected the words "this" above, but it keeps trying to set the word "this" as the target for the link with nothing in the "link text" field, and since there is no support article named "this", it will just use the default markup text for when the input is invalid ("http://example.com this" with brackets around it)... pretty sure that's a bug as well right?

it does not continue to happen if I reload the page and log back in to the website. However, I ran into a related problem where CTRL + F doesn't seem to find the entry in box depicted in this screenshot (even though the HTML element is a normal table of text) I'm pretty sure part of the fault is on the website developer, since they don't appear to be very competent based on other issues I've had with them, but it would still be nice if Firefox could work around whatever they screwed up.
Hi
Are you able to share a link to the page?
