I've used javascript.internet.com 's script to simulate the "Find in Page" option (found here: however is there a way for me to highlight every search result when "Submit" is pressed.

For example, I have a long list of names. I put in the find field, "john" and then press submit. it jumps to the first john in the list but then if I keep scrolling I see that, "johnathan" (well the john part of johnathan) is highlighted as well?

I hope I am explaning this clearly enough?
 
You said: "I hope I am explaning this clearly enough?" -- Nope.

You want to select every occurance at the same time?
