- How do I change highlighting colors?
You have to change the userContent.css and userChrome.css files. Here is an example.
userChrome.css @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
.searchbox-token {
background: #dee7f8;
color: #000;
}
.searchbox-token:hover {
border-color: #6d95e0;
background: #bbcef1;
}
.searchbox-token:hover:active {
border-color: #608ce0;
background: #a0c9ff;
}
.searchbox-token[highlight="term-1"] {
background-color: #fbed73;
border-color: #e1d467;
}
.searchbox-token[highlight="term-1"]:hover {
background-color: #fbe313;
border-color: #dac400;
}
.searchbox-token[highlight="term-1"]:hover:active {
background-color: #f1d700;
border-color: #d1ba00;
}
...userContent.css .searchwp-term {
color: black;
}
.searchwp-term[highlight="term-1"] {
background-color: #fbed73;
}
.searchwp-term[highlight="term-2"] {
background-color: #ffb18c;
}
.searchwp-term[highlight="term-3"] {
background-color: #ffd281;
}
.searchwp-term[highlight="term-4"] {
background-color: #c3f991;
}
.searchwp-term[highlight="term-5"] {
background-color: #e9b8ff;
}- Whenever a term is shown in the SearchWP area, an extra "term" displays, called "undefined".
Uninstall the McAfee SiteAdvisor add-on. It causes many problems not only with SearchWP but with other add-ons too.
Shortcut keys- F3 lets you repeat the last jump-to-word search.
- F8 enables or disables the highlighting.
- SHIFT + Click, SHIFT + F3, middle-click or right-click reverses the order of the search.
- CTRL + Click or CTRL + F3 makes the search case-sensitive.

How do I make the search term buttons line-up with the text?
I added the following to userChrome.css (in the chrome directory in my Firefox profile directory) to make the search term buttons line up exactly with the text. This leaves less room between buttons for clicking to edit the text, but it ensures that the text will not change position when switching between text and button states. The effect fails in certain situations, such as when quotes are used, words are repeated, or the text is too long. Note that the -moz-margin-end (and possibly other settings) may need adjusting if you use a different font (I'm using Verdana 8 on Windows XP).
.searchbox-tokens-container { -moz-margin-start: 0px !important; -moz-margin-end: 0px !important; } .searchbox-token { -moz-border-radius: 0.3em !important; -moz-margin-start: 0em !important; -moz-margin-end: .18em !important; padding: 0 0.0em !important; }Toggle highlighting by F8 doesn't work with me. Probably I've got a conflict with other add-ons. Couln't that be done in the options? (Maybe just set minimum keyword length to 1000 and call it "never" in the existing drop down menu) Otherwise I would have to temper with the css because I use the search buttons, and not highlighting so much. Regards, Frank.
