Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.146 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Go to Netflix 2. Hit cmd+F 3. Search for a movie title embedded in a image What is the expected behavior? I'm mostly navigate around with just the keyboard. Searching for text on links and see the matched text from search box and just hit enter. But Netflix and some other websites dose a horrible job when they only present images and shows no visible machine readable text. I was brainstorming how Netflix could keep it the way it's but make it still functional with page search. One idea was what if there was an js api to detect search string. like `window.onsearch` or something... First result of googleing brought this up: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6680213/is-there-a-way-to-detect-find-on-the-page-searches-in-javascript I wish i got some glowing outline on images like the one we get on input on Mac. developers could emulate it if there was some standard api but there is none. The other solution would be if browser could do some work for searching alt text, href and/or title attributes and highlight/focus those link elements too that has no inner text I know you can't do something about netflix and i don't expect them to change there website either but i do wish for some improvement could be made for searching for links that has no text inside of them where the only content is an image. What went wrong? Netflix did a lousy job Did this work before? N/A Chrome version: 65.0.3325.146 Channel: n/a OS Version: OS X 10.12.6 Flash Version:
