    Is there 'Find' feature on Safari?

    .. Like 'Ctrl-F' in Windows Explorer

    Thanks.

    Yes start typing the search word at the top right in the Google search box. Then scroll down the search suggestions to the bottom and look for On This Page and you'll see even a count of finds. Click the choice and it will highlight word found in yellow. Then a NEXT will appear bottom left of the browser. Have fun!

    You can find a specific word or phrase in the Safari Browser on the iPad by typing what you're looking for into the Google search bar at the top of the browser. A drop down menu will appear and the last entry will be "On This Page" and it will show a count of how many times what you're looking for (or say "No matches").

    Hope that helps and enjoy!
