HighlightAll is a Firefox extension which allows you to highlight all occurrences of the selected text.
When enabled, just select text with your mouse, and all occurrences will automatically get highlighted - no context menu! Another click in the document will remove highlighting.
Works also in source code viewing for developers.
Enabling/disabling can be done with F8 key, or you can set it to be always active.
Version 1.2 to come these days: customizable shortcut, plus display in the status bar of the count of how many times the highlighted text was found.
Note that HighlightAll keeps the selection active once the job is done, so you can still copy/paste it.
