The Search All Books text field in the navigation frame (see Figure 4–3) of the collection window allows you to search all the books in the HTML collection.
The collection window search function works the same way as the book window search function; that is, you type a particular word or phrase into the text field and press [Enter] or click Search All Books. An hourglass icon displays while the search is in progress. When the collection search is complete, the number of hits that match your search criteria in each book appears to the left of the book titles (see Figure 4–4).If the search is unsuccessful, a message indicates that no hits were found.To view the search results in a book, click a book title in the collection window. The book opens with the search term or phrase in the Search text field and the number of hits in the book displayed in the table of contents frame (see Figure 4–5). Click Next Match or Previous Match in the navigation frame to move through the document from one hit to the next. As you step through each hit, the highlighting color of the hit that you are viewing is different from that of the remaining hits. When you move from one section to another, the highlighting in the table of contents frame moves to the new section.
