for FUCK's SAKE! Microsoft, STOP OVERRIDING CTRL+F IN YOUR WEB-TOOLS.

I know you can override it
I know you know how to make a fancy search module for your websites/tools (Teams, GH, etc.)
I know you think you're soooo hipp and cool by doing so

But for crying out loud, quit being an asshole and stop overriding ctrl+f.

If I want to search for a substring in a page, that means I want to search for a substring IN A FUCKING PAGE, not in just a section of a page you choose.

Fucking asshole!!

    Thats is a small price you pay with your sanity for using something made by Microsoft.

    @coldfire sanity is the price you pay to enter FOSS-space

    @dontbeevil yes, the same conclusion came to my mind too (sharing code).

    I guess you're lucky. For me on Chrome/LMint it inhibits the browser's native Search feature

    I would just like to be able to select text on a page.
    Outlook web. Preview pdf attachment. Shows title of PDF at the top. I need a term from that title. Cannot select that text.
    Why? What purpose does that serve?

    For that matter: custom click handlers on links, and then custom-implementing part of the standard interactions.

    'Click on link' - opens in new focused tab. Ok whatever.
    'CMD-click' - opens in new focused tab. Should be background tab. Now I cannot open multiple links quickly, because the new tab has focus.
    'Middle mouse button' - does nothing.

    What's wrong with an `a` element? There's ways to work that even into tables.

    @Gazotey could it be that _preview_ is a picture generated from the pdf?
