Description

The search facility can already display which lines were matched by the

search, if any. However, it would also be useful to be able to see the full
page, with the search terms highlighted with e.g. a yellow text background.

This might be achieved by linking to an URL like:

http://example.com/French%20Cheeses?highlight=French

so that the highlighting would be preserved (assuming the page continued to
contain the search term, of course!) if the link were bookmarked or sent to
someone else.
