Epiphany, for instance, expects to get this information from the search API (in order to update the UI with the wrap information). The only way to do this now is to something like: + if (webkit_web_view_search_text (priv->web_view, priv->find_string, priv->case_sensitive, forward, FALSE)) + { + return EPHY_EMBED_FIND_FOUND; + } + else if (webkit_web_view_search_text (priv->web_view, priv->find_string, priv->case_sensitive, forward, TRUE)) + { + return EPHY_EMBED_FIND_FOUNDWRAPPED; + } + else + return EPHY_EMBED_FIND_NOTFOUND; which is ugly. It would be nice to return an enum value with { NOT_FOUND, FOUND, FOUND_WRAPPED } possibilities. Not sure how easy is to do this given the WebCore API, does not look trivial at first sight though. 998935 1 mrobinson 2014-04-08 17:53:46 -0700 Going to close this one, but we should open a new bug if it's still an issue with ephy + WebKit2.
