how can I highlight in colour the keywords I searched for?
When I type a text into Google, and get a link to a page, I'd like the text I searched for to appear as highlight in the page...
Does the highlight feature exist in Firefox?
(If you have to go through pages of text in order to get to the results, it can be long to find...)

Some websites do that automatically: they detect that you found them in a Google search and highlight your search terms for you.
(Some people find that a little creepy...)
Firefox doesn't do that, but if you install the Google toolbar and do your searches through the toolbar, then it can add the highlights:
See: Highlight and find words on websites : Master advanced features - Toolbar Help
(Edit: I don't use the Google toolbar, so I'm just going by what they have posted about it.)

Thanks jscher2000, for your suggestion.
In fact I used to have Google toolbar a year or two ago, but found it too heavy for what it really helped, and I disinstalled it...
(The display window also becomes really small when there are too many toolbars there on top.)
I would have liked to find just this highlight feature for the Internet search at the Mozilla plugins...

(perhaps this may be a suggestion for developers?)
Thanks anyway !!
