How to do a ctrl+F with a link

I would like to put a link on my website that does a control F (find).  Is there any way to do this with JAVA, ASP, or HTML?

I found my own answer.  If any one is curious this is how I did it:

·     I used VB to create a DHTML Application.
·     Next I created a hyperlink that sent “^” & “f”
·     Saved the project
·     Created the dll
·     Then pasted the html code into my current web page
·     And it worked perfectly!
Here is the html code:
<!--METADATA TYPE="MsHtmlPageDesigner" startspan--><object id="DHTMLPage1" classid="clsid:20EDD44B-5A5B-11D7-A858-0000E89AB30D" width=0 height=0></object><!--METADATA TYPE="MsHtmlPageDesigner" endspan--><A id=Hyperlink1 href="" name=Hyperlink1><FONT
size=7>Link</FONT></A>
communicate:  that really wasn't what I was looking for but thanks for the help

here is the link to the dll file if you want it:
