However, there are a couple of ways to search those sites which have - often unintentionally - made it harder for us to find their stuff.
Firstly, if I am wanting to search the page I am on, then I simply Crtl & F to bring up the Find window, and enter my search term in that. A quick enter should take me to the first instance of my entered search term on the page. Repeated enters will tab me through each of the next occurrences.
Secondly, there are a couple of sites where I need to find particular documents or sub-pages. Here I will entering a search string - like the two examples following - into my favourite search bar (DuckDuckGo at the moment):
site:www.cate.co.nz Code of Ethics
site:www.cate.co.nz "Code of Ethics"
We put "site:" followed by the website itself to identify the web domain (or a longer URL) we want to be searched, and then the search term we are seeking at that address. We can use quotes marks in the search string if we are looking for an exactly search term (i.e. exactly what is inside the double quote marks, including spaces).
And between those two methods, I usually find that which I need.
