How many times have you just wanted to find a specific word or phrase on a web page in Safari Mobile, but could not? Well, I have!

How many think that this is a feature that should be added to Safari Mobile and fast?
 
nah not me

then again i always said i never really thought i would use copy and paste, but i use it all the time. so never know.
 
+1!!

I've wanted this since I first experienced mobile safari. It seems like a no-brainer when your using such a small screen.
 
hmmmmm never thought about that. I really like the idea though.

I use find on my computer all the time. This would be a welcome addition IMO
 
Me too. I frequently want this feature. Even the browser that came with my old Palm Pilot had this feature.
 
I agree, in fact Safari should have a sixth button--- one that opens up a menu with options like Find and Print (print to bluetooth or networked printers). In fact, some of the other apps could use this too.
 
I'd love to see this. I was looking at someones IMDB entry the other day and wanted to find a specific movie. Find would have been hella helpful.
 
Ctrl + F is a feature I would use a lot. I can't believe it is still not available.
 
Yep, I'd love a search feature brought into Safari and also into the document viewer especially for pdf files.
 
How about search for Mail attachments? I can't count the number of times I've gotten 30+ page documents and needed to get to a specific part.
