How to fix “find as you type” in Opera 10.50

Here’s how to fix “find as you type” and “find in page” in the new version of Opera (10.50).

I upgraded to the new version of Opera and “find as you type” wasn’t highlighting the search terms. Also, “find in page” wasn’t working either; when I was hitting Enter, it was taking me to a dictionary page. This was really frustrating! Thanks to the Opera Forums I found out how to fix this.

To fix it, edit your search.ini file and add this entry.

[Search Engine 23]
UNIQUEID=368291005FC211DD8DE6B90756D89593
Name=
URL=
Query=
Key=f
Is post=0
Has endseparator=0
Encoding=
Search Type=12
Verbtext=0
Position=-1
Nameid=71103

Just replace “23″ with the next sequence in your search.ini file. So, if your last entry was Search Engine 15, this one should be Search Engine 16. Restart Opera and it should be fixed!
