Container Keyword Finder
A Chrome extension that finds keywords on any webpage and highlights their parent container — not just the matched word itself. Never lose a result in content-heavy pages again.
Install →What makes this different
Built out of a real frustration — searching through dense pages like documentation, news feeds, or dashboards where Ctrl+F highlights a word but the highlight is so small it disappears into the content. This extension solves that by thinking at the container level, not the word level.
The problem
Standard Ctrl+F highlights individual words, which can be impossible to spot on dense pages — dashboards, documentation, news feeds. The highlighted text blends into the content.
How it works
Container Keyword Finder walks up the DOM from the matched text and highlights the entire containing element — the paragraph, heading, card, or section holding that text — so you always know exactly where to look.
Each result is independent. Use the ↑ and ↓ buttons to move up or down the ancestor chain for any match — from a tight <p> all the way up to its wrapping <section> — without affecting other results. The page highlight updates instantly as you navigate.
Features
- Highlights parent containers, not just matched text
- Navigate each result's ancestor chain independently — up to parent, down to child
- Page highlight updates live as you move through the DOM
- Choose your highlight colour from 5 presets — blue, purple, green, orange, or pink

- Open instantly with
Ctrl+Shift+F/Command+Shift+F - Works on any http:// or https:// page
Privacy
This extension runs entirely in your browser — it simply walks the page's DOM tree to find your keyword, the same way Ctrl+F does. Nothing is collected, stored, or sent to any server. Learn more in the privacy policy.
