Hello...

I have just spent DAYS trying to figure out how to search the current
document (or frame) for a word.
I just then realized that the function that I need is built into both major
browsers and it's the same short-cut
key - CTRL and F.

Now, is there a way to be able to have a nice, big, pretty button on your
webpage and then when they
click on it, it (somehow) sends the CTRL and F key *OR* using some kinda
document.write.thingy get the
Search This Document dialog box to open up????

Thanks so very much!!

-Lucy
