as in the WebBrowser control are to find all occurrences of a keyword, highlight them and go to the first occurrence ?
IE's webbrowser controls supports many edit features, you can either change the HTML or add segments to the highlight render service.

I must have hit a setting in ST3 and caused my program to display results in a panel instead of in a buffer. How do I get it back so that find-text results go into their own tab? I've done some digging around but I can't find what I did.
In the Find in Files panel, there is a series of buttons to the left of the Find field, and the right most one of those is the one that controls whether the find results show up in a panel or in a buffer.
Note that the button may look different in your version as it appears that you're using a different theme (the image below shows the default theme). You can verify that you have the correct button based on the tool tip text.
I have created a webpage using Backbone.js and Marionette.js that mostly consists of a bootstrap accordion view that displays a list of items when the accordion header is clicked. Each item can also be clicked, which will show a hidden div of detailed information that pertains to that particular item.
I would like to make this site accessible to people who might not be using a mouse (Maybe they're visually impaired and using a screen reader? Maybe they just don't like clicking things? Either way.) I'm thinking that this would mean being able to press the Tab key to get to the accordion, pressing Space or Enter to open the accordion, Tabbing down (or down arrow key?) through the list items, and then using Space or Enter to show the selected item's hidden div.
I'm finding it difficult to find information on how to add a feature like this, since searches like "How to make an accessible website that can be used without a mouse" mostly turns up blogs on what a developer should do to add accessibility to a page, and not much on how to do it.
Currently, the page doesn't really respond to any keyboard buttons. Any tips or resources you could share would be extremely appreciated. I've been fiddling with ARIA role tags, but I'm either not doing it right or it's not the answer here.
You have to use tabindex

Screen readers automatically read whatever element is the activeElement
Iwould like to add a button at the end of a listView in the same way as the bing apps do (see picture for example).
I looked for hours in google and in the microsoft documentation but canøt find anything that can give me an idea of how to do this.
Did anyone achieved this?
thanks
If you run that app (Health & Fitness), then run Visual Studio and use Debug > Attach to Process, you can open the DOM Explorer and examine how that UI is implemented.
What you'll see in this case is that it's not using a ListView at all, but rather it's own custom control that's just based on a CSS grid. That is, just because there's a grid-like view doesn't mean it's a ListView. You can always use straight HTML/CSS layout to achieve these sorts of things, which is all that's happening here. As such, it just makes separate div's for those two "More" elements.
Now if you do want to use a ListView, there are a few things you can do. First of all, if you want to render any item in a ListView differently than others, you have to make sure to use a different template. What this means is that you use an item rendering function rather than a declarative template, which then enables you to examine the item data and programmatically decide what kind of rendering to perform.
Second, if you want to have items of different sizes, then you need to use cell spanning. In Windows 8.0/WinJS 1.0 this is a property of the GridLayout. In Windows 8.1/WinJS 2.0 you instead use the CellSpanningLayout.
I have all the details for both rending functions and cell spanning written up in Chapter 7 of my second edition preview of Programming Windows Store Apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, which is a free ebook from Microsoft Press so it doesn't cost you anything. :)
Can the browser feature of Ctrl+F to find text be integrated with text in popup windows.
I'd like to have some scientific reference information given when someone hovers over a species name in a web page. Generating the popup, tooltip style text is no problem, the problem is that anyone using Ctrl+F won't be able to find it, or if I position the text out of view when not required, it will be found but be invisible.
The same sort of effect applies to "accordion" style expanding text areas.
I'm looking for some sort of event generated when find is highlighting a result.
Unfortunately there is no such event, you can't interfere with the built-in find.
About the best you can do in this case is to provide your own search function in-page, which searches the DOM for Text nodes containing the given text, highlights them, and opens up any closed accordions they're in.
The only idea I have, is to put all the text from your popups in one additional scrollbox (maybe at the bottom of the page) with a height just large enough to display one set of detail information at a time. This way, it doesn't take up too much space on the page, and the text can still be found using Ctrl+F.
all. Is there anyway to get IE's visual filters to render when using the WebBrowser control? Thanks!
I thought the WebBrowser control was based on IE4 or 5. It wouldn't know how to handle filters.
