No page scrolling or hilighting of results after searching. Up/Down buttons do nothing on Firefox and Chrome. #395

Issue Description

I've entered (?<=[a-z])(?=[A-Z]\B) to search for CamelCase occurrences, and I got 3 results on the page (https://www.nomadfactory.com/products/bbe_sonicsweet_optimized/index.html):

But when I press the up/down buttons to cycle through the results, nothing happens. No auto-scroll, no highlighting, nothing. So essentially I can't get the extension to work.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install the latest version of Firefox Developer Edition (110.0b7 64-bit) or Chrome (109.0.5414.120 Official Build 64-bit).
  2. Install Find+ in your browser.
  3. Go here as an example.
  4. Press CTRL+SHIFT+F
  5. Enter in this expression: (?<=[a-z])(?=[A-Z]\B). You should see that three results have been found.
  6. Press the Up/Down buttons and watch as nothing happens.

Expected Behavior

The plugin should both highlight and auto-scroll to results that have been identified.

Screenshots and Documentation

Again I'm on the latest Firefox (110.0b7 64-bit) and Chrome (109.0.5414.120 Official Build 64-bit).

I really need this feature and it looks like Find+ is the only real solution that exists currently.

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated

Nevermind. It was my expression that was at fault. I guess Find+ doesn't parse it correctly. Other - more simple - expressions are working fine. Closing the issue.
