    Find & Replace

    Find & Replace targets editable content on web pages: compose windows, CMS editors, forms, and forums. Search with options, replace in place, and reuse saved queries from favourites or history.

Features

  • Live highlighting
    Matches highlight as you type so you can see results before replacing.
  • Regex support
    Use regular expressions for advanced pattern matching when you need more control.
  • Favourites & history
    Save common find/replace pairs and recall recent searches stored locally.
  • Field-aware search
    Focus on the current selection or scan editable areas across the page.

FAQ

  • How is this different from Ctrl+F?

    Browser find locates text anywhere on the page. Find & Replace updates editable fields in place.

  • Does it support regex?

    Yes. Enable regex mode for pattern-based search and replace.

  • Is my data sent to a server?

    No. Searches and saved favourites are stored locally in your browser.
