I am working on a daily basis on a web application with very large menus. Also doing lots of other Excel manipulations, copy and pasting, etc., I am quite fond of keyboard shortcuts as much faster than using the mouse to point, double-click and then going back to my keyboard etc.

Hence, my question is quite simple, does anyone know if there is any shortcut under Firefox which would let me actually select (and not highlight) in my web page the search result so that I can for instance do the following manipulation sequence?

1. [Ctrl]+[F]
2. type the search string, for instance 'regional_unit'
3. the missing shortcut to actually select in my page the string which is currently highlighted thanks to the search feature of FF
4. [Space] or [Enter] key to activate the web element which in my case would systematically correspond to a link or button, etc.

May be there would be an addon replacing the default search feature, I don't know... I tried to look over the internet but with the words I am using for this investigation, I do not get relevant search results under Google :(.

Thanks a lot
