IE view source - add F3 hotkey for "Find next"

Submitted by Indrek on June 10, 2009 to Usability

In text editors as well as many other apps, F3 is pretty much the universal hotkey for jumping to the next search result. It even works in Notepad and regedit.

Add the F3 hotkey to the IE source viewer. If a search term has not yet been entered, have it act like Ctrl+F (ie. open the Find dialog).

For bonus points, add Shift+F3 for "Find previous".
