 * Hello there!
 * I have a site that contains 1 very long post. I’m looking for a way of adding
   a search function to it so users can search for words much as they would using
   ctrl+f or similar.
 * Any ideas?
 * Thanks 🙂

 * This isn’t really a WordPress question. But to save you a bit of time, it’s possible
   to do using JS. See, for example, [this StackOverflow thread](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10011385/jquery-search-in-static-html-page-with-highlighting-of-found-word).

 * Thanks, yes it looks like I was looking for an answer in the wrong place.
