Intelligent Page Indexing & Search

YouTabs includes a powerful built-in indexing system that makes finding content across your visited pages effortless:

Page Indexing

The extension automatically indexes web pages you visit, extracting:

• Headings (H1-H6) — All heading elements are captured and indexed
• Paragraphs — Text content from paragraph elements
• Links — All hyperlink text and destinations
• Images — Image alt text and descriptions
• Custom Text Selection — You can manually select and add any text from a page to the index

The indexing process works as follows:

1. When you visit a page, the extension's content script automatically extracts all structural elements (headings, paragraphs, links, images, divs, lists)
2. This data is stored in IndexedDB for persistent storage
3. You can also manually highlight any text on a page and add it to the index for future searching
4. Each indexed page maintains its URL, title, and all extracted content

Search Functionality

The search system provides multiple ways to find content:

• Full-Text Search — Search through all indexed content including headings, paragraphs, and custom-added text
• Heading-Focused Search — Quickly find specific sections within pages by searching headings
• Real-Time Results — Search results update as you type
• Filtered Search — Filter search results by content type (headings, paragraphs, links, images, etc.)
• Quick Navigation — Click any search result to instantly scroll to that exact location on the page

The search features include:
- Search input with keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+F to focus)
- Clear button to reset search
- Filter dropdown to select which content types to search
- Highlighted search terms when navigating to results
- URL-based indexing ensures each page is indexed once and updated on revisit
