Listen for Events from Browser “Find” Window in JavaScript

Question

Is there a way to listen for typing into the browser\'s \"find\" window in JavaScript?

Answer 1

Hardly. Even if it were possible through some loophole to listen to the browser's built-in "find" function, it would be a privacy issue and get closed sooner or later. I'm quite sure you won't be able to listen to the keystrokes either, as they take place outside the page's focus.
