No 'search/find on page' option in new iOS7 Safari
iOS6 let you search the text on a web page. The new version doesn't seem to. The unified search bar only searches the web. Any ideas?

This article is aimed mainly at the iphone and doesn't mention the search feature. Also, it is written in a way which is hard to follow! No offence!
I just wanted to bump this question up and ask it again. Has anyone found a way to "find on page" using iOS 7 Safari?
I'm totally bummed that it appears to have been eliminated in this new version.
Typing in the URL field will produce not only internet search results, but search results for the page you are on. It will be listed after the internet search results and labelled "On this Page".

Thanks!
I didn't notice the page results because typing in the address field replaces the current page with the toolbar favorites and the "on this page" results were hidden by the popup keyboard.
A little non-intuitive. But as long as feature exists, I'm happy.
You're welcome. King Penguin is like a superhero - he knows the answer to EVERTHING. Yes, I found it strange how the page you are viewing dissapears when you use the "find on page" facility. And also that the keyboard can cover it up. Not a great design, but ho-hum.
It still S*CKS!
