Recently learned that if you Ctrl-F again after the highjacking, it brings up the browser search box.

Discovered this thanks to a site (don't remember which) that included a tooltip about this fact in their hijacked search box. I was curious if it would work on Redocly search, which has no such tooltip, and it did. I'm not positive if this works universally, or is just an undocumented feature of Redocly's interface and won't work in places the developers didn't make specific accommodations for it.

Env: Chrome + OSX or Windows.




It's a feature built-in to most browsers, same with right-click (if page hijacks right click, right-click twice in rapid succession).


Thanks for the info!
