Script for finding text in same page on select
I don't think I will write this script, but some code examples might help you or whoever is interested in taking it on:
(1) Detect a user selection (e.g., onmouseup) -- I don't have any scripts that monitor this mouse event but there probably are many examples on the web
(2) Read a selection in the page

(3) Find and highlight all matching text in a page

Script for finding text in same page on select
Hello,
Can anyone help me or, better, create a script for me?
What I need:
On selecting a text in a page, it will look for the exact or closest result on the same webpage, and highlighting that result in a blue color. The script need to be running at all times. If it is possible, can an activate and deactivate option be added? Can you also annotate all the codes so that I can understand what they do?
Thank you, whoever you may be, for looking into it.
