With case-sensitive searches, the text-transform style (uppercase, lowercase, etc) doesn't apply, even though the visible text looks uppercase/lowercase. Try a case-sensitive search (ctrl-f) for "navigation" on Wikipedia for an example. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to a site with text-transform styles applied to a part of text. 2. Try to do a (case-sensitive) search for what the text appears to be. Actual Results: Fails to find the text in the displayed case (you have to use the case specified in the source code) Expected Results: The text in its visible case should have been found.
To clarify - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Boadicea_%281908%29 - hit ctrl-f - select case sensitive text - enter 'navigation' - and it doesn't match - Navigation does, which is not the apparant text.
