entireWord
Whether to match entire words only. Default is false.
findBackwards
Whether to find backwards (towards the beginning of the document). Default is false (search forward).
matchCase
Whether to match case (case sensitive) when searching. Default is false.
matchDiacritics
Whether to match diacritics when searching. Default is false.
searchFrames
Whether to search through all frames in the content area. Default is true.
Note that you can control whether the search propagates into child or parent frames explicitly using nsIWebBrowserFindInFrames, but if one, but not both, of searchSubframes and searchParentFrames are set, this returns false.
searchString
The string to search for. This must be non-empty to search.
wrapFind
Whether the search wraps around to the start (or end) of the document if no match was found between the current position and the end (or beginning). Works correctly when searching backwards. Default is false.
Optional
aInstancePtr: objectA run time mechanism for interface discovery.
NS_OK if the interface is supported by the associated instance, NS_NOINTERFACE if it is not.
aInstancePtr must not be null.
[in] A requested interface IID

nsIWebBrowserFind
Searches for text in a web browser.
Get one by doing a GetInterface on an nsIWebBrowser.
By default, the implementation will search the focussed frame, or if there is no focussed frame, the web browser content area. It does not by default search subframes or iframes. To change this behaviour, and to explicitly set the frame to search, QueryInterface to nsIWebBrowserFindInFrames.
