"Find" box empty after visiting next page on the same website
Like for forums software.
On forums you often have more than one pages for a subject, e.g.
on this Opera forum (~350 pages!!!).
Allthough there is often a search option, it does not always work efficently.
As the results are ofen showed in a condensed way, so you keep on clicking, even when there are more results on the same subpage.
So i often use the page search option (Ctrl + F) to search that sub page.
But it uou go to the next subpage... the "page search box using "ctrl +F" is empty.....
So you have to copy the search string into the meory with "ctrl +C" in order to avoid the neede to retype it every tiem you go to the next sub page.

The page search bx is a very strong tool but it lacks to keep the search string when you go to the next sub page.

Is a bug or still a non-Opera feature?

I haven't tried it in recent versions, but typically Find next (F3) remembers the last typed search term.

This is how it having been working since the beginning. As said, you can use F3 to search in the next page using the same keyword.
