I've tried this twice in the last year or so: once on twitter and once on dropbox. Neither time did it work. It _seemed_ that ctrl+f would not find anything that was not visible +/- a screen height or two. I couldn't tell if it was a shortcoming of Firefox (unlikely IMO) or both sites tried to be clever about dynamically unloading content when it was outside the view window (more likely).

Seems to be a Firefox thing. Works fine on Chromium browsers, only finds stuff near the top in Firefox.
